Agreed--not all laws are enforced.
And not all illegal actions can lead to liability and lawsuits, which our organizations cannot afford to continuously defend ourselves against.

Have you ever noticed that this forum and this whole area of discussion is called Risk Management? It's not called Risk Elimination and Prevention.
We are exposed to liabilities and risk on a daily basis. In fact, it's a given that it will happen at some point (hence the liability). Given our exposure, we just try and manage it because that's all we can do. So those standards that you think need to be held above all else, are often ignored even by a national office.
I can name off several chapters of several dry fraternities where I know without a shadow of a doubt that their national office knows those chapters are not dry and those chapters are still open.
Risk is managed, molded, and evolved over time.
