agree with peppygphib. it is the responsibility of the older members in general, and the officers in particular, to make sure those entering the party are not under the influence. i believe that at the time a member or guest enters the sorority function, the sorority is held responsible for their actions and their safety.

unfortunately, it does not matter that the chapter is not serving alcohol-those who have pre-partied, should not be allowed in, and a cab (or an offer to drive them home)should be called for them. i am looking at it from a national liability standpoint.

kudos to the members who called 9 1 1. i'm glad no one was injured.i hope that the chapter does not suffer any repercussions from the college. it does sound like a risk management seminar for the chapter might be useful.

am i right in remembering that dartmouth is known as a school with some substance abuse issues ?
