Those of you who read this forum back when I was moderator know that I also believe that it would be good to lower the drinking age (for beer only, maybe?) to eighteen -- but until that happens our chapters have to obey the law or risk closing.

It's not enough to say that college students are going to drink no matter what. While that's true, corporate entities such as our chapters can't afford to be part of illegal activities. Which is what underage drinking (and also hazing) are -- illegal.
DeltAlum while this is so true and we both think some what a like, it seems so hypocritical at times.

I guess it would not be if the Law was changed?

So, the next question is will it ever be? Probably not.

Will the Bills for Greek Donations be passed, probably not.

While we have the best of Govrnments compared to others, they are doing not a darn thing except for themselves!
