I'm 22 years old. If I'm being forced to take down a picture of myself enjoying a beer that I purchased for myself legally, isn't this a violation of my privacy? I'm having trouble conveying this to them. Help would be appreciated  |
There is no privacy violation. They haven't gained illegal access to your home or online passwords.
The sorority is trying to shift its image away from alcohol and partying. You are a member of XYZ sorority, and you're being asked to promote the sorority in a positive way. This means refraining from promoting alcohol consumption on the internet.
No one is telling you that you can't drink alcohol or photograph yourself drinking alcohol.
