this is such bullshit.

People know fraternities are under fire for anything they do so rather than own up to the fact that they got busted they blame it on a fraternity. All of a sudden the kid goes from being "underage drinker" to "innocent kid led astray by evil fraternity man."

It's the same mindset where if 2 people, one wearing a fraternity jacket and one not, are weaving their way back from a party, the one with the letters on will most likely get breathalized and written up and the other one will get sent home. This was happening a lot on my campus for a while. By the way, this is the reason for all the no drinking in letters rules nowadays, not "it's disrespectful to drink in letters." That's just what you are told.

If I heard of someone doing that, I'd say not only ban him from your fraternity house, but from all of them. I've never seen anyone go to a fraternity house and be forced to drink. It's time people start taking responsibility for what they do.
