However, bars don't exactly lose money on us because most everybody in this town has a fake ID and the bouncers are not strict at all.

If your officers are knowingly allowing underage women into your socials held at bars, even if they have a fake, they are probably assuming some serious levels of liability. At some level are you, as a chapter, not promoting underage drinking?
I have a question. Is it just AST or all NPCs (I assume it is all) that does not allow events where alcohol is the main function of the event?
I just do not understand how chapters are allowed to have chapter events at bars, establishments whose main function is alcoholic beverage service. I'm seriously confused on how this works. Why would you even have a chapter event that every sister could not legally attend? Isn't the idea of a fraternity/sorority social to bond with your sisters and also give everyone in the org a chance to bond/meet people in another org?
