It would be nice to have this type of policy, if it does exist. As for the gentlemen comment, well our fraternity has open parties, as do all the others on our campus, and you can't guarantee that all guys that walk in the door are going to be gentlemen, or that all the ladies that walk in will be ladylike. With that being said, my pledge semester we threw a huge party and there were a ton of people there. For some reason or another, we had our top floors open, which we usually never do. The lines for the bathrooms were very long so I go flying upstairs to use another one. As I'm walking up the stairs, I run into another brother of mine who has to take a piss to, so we both continue to walk to the bathroom...Then we hear a girl screaming and crying and yelling stuff, and we were like wtf? it was coming from the bathroom, so we kick open the door, and there is some random dood in there with this girl hitting her and he had most of her clothes off. i'm not a violent person but I charged into the room and starting beating the sh@# out of this guy while my other brother grabbed the girl and got her out of there....he came back with some more of our members and we literally drug this a@@hole the the campus police department. At the same time, we had other members bringing the girl to the emergency room of the on campus hospital. I felt so horrible for her, maybe because it happened in our house. But a few weeks later she came back with a thank you card and she thanked us all for our help, she started crying, i got teary eyed too..she is now in a greek org and we hang out with her quite often..but the point of the story is...you can't guarantee every guy in the world to be a gentlemen.
It's sad, yes, but true, very.
