Hey bros this is parrothead( i lost my password). I go to a reletively small school, out in the middle of no where. We don not have a greek affairs person, the majority of the resident assistants, and the security guards, as long as there is no alcohol (beers, liquor) on the person on campus, are very lax. I dont know how it is a bigger schools, but limiting our member ship to those who can legaly drink, which remeber would only really be juniors and seniors, and would maybe raise the quality level of brothers, but at the same time decrease the numbers. Dont most people who pledge do so in their freshman year? So not only would we not be able to rush people who are under 21, but those who might have been interested might go somewhere else, where they can join, and probably drink. I feel that we should focus more on changing the laws to refect society, than change society to reflect the laws. Thats why we can amend the constitution, so that its not illegal to work on sunday, and so that women can vote, its just time to change this, teenagers grow up in high school now, they go to college and they canm buy cigarettes, which do more bodily harm than alcohol does. I feel that we schould expend the amount of energy used to get people to stop smoking as we do to not drink, and just start informing kids about alcohol. I mean look at foreign countrys, they dont have anymore alcohol related deaths than we do, but they live with it, from an early age, just like our society does with smoking. hope that all makes sense,
AEKDB--JIM
