Not allowing 20 somethings' to drink in their own house is stupid as hell. If chapters abide to no alcohol rush policies, then I don't see any problems.

yah, i totally agree. only two houses on our campus are dry and no one wants to have exchanges with them. it's sad but true. we are ALL legal pretty much. and if we're not, then usually those who are underage will be of age within three months.
it's a touchy subject cause we're extensions of the u.s. houses and we can change our bi-laws but the alcohol laws are handed down by I.H. so it's not easy to get around. But I've asked the same question myself.
As for OACs, they are Ontario Acedemic Credits. They're taken as a grade 13, (sucks) and you have to take 6 to get into university. The schools take the average of your best 6s oacs and consider acceptance on those grades ALONE (except for Mcgill which looks at previous years).
hope that answers your question.
