As I said before, not all national orgs enforce their policies, and I don't agree with that. If you're going to have a policy, then enforce it; otherwise, consider not adopting or rescinding that policy.

Nobody enforces everything.
And drinking is just one case (coincidentally, if you assume one enters college at 18 and graduates at 22, unless their parties are for seniors only - which they're not - they are violating the underage laws by 75%). I also know of several chapters where the advisors and consultants know about hazing. It's just the way it is. Scav hunts may be considered hazing, but often people look the other way.
Even payments of dues often come in after deadline.
The list can go on and on.
