I think you should, as a friend, brother, sister, however you wanna look at it, aid and care for your friends when they're tanked and on the verge of doing something stupid. However, I do not feel it is your "responsibility" to look after them, but rather simply the correct thing to do. There has to be some amount of personal responsibility, and frankly I'm tired of hearing schools, parents, whoever, blame a person or fraternity for their child harming him/herself

Well said -- I agree.
It really bothers me when parents act like they're entitled to have schools and/or organizations finish raising their kids because they couldn't/didn't do it themselves. Of course your fraternity brothers (or whoever) should help you out if you mess up and have way too much to drink -- but parents should not DEMAND that or anything else, including ridiculous rules and regulations on campuses and in organizations.
