This argument goes on and on and I think it's silly. If you're at a small school where everyone knows everyone or at least knows what group they are in, I think it's pointless to get all self righteous about not drinking in letters. It doesn't matter if you have letters on or not. Everyone is going to know that AlphaFrog the ASA and Brad Pitt the Sigma Chi were groping each other at the bar. 
And as TSteven said...it used to be you SHOULD wear letters to get certain rights at parties, etc.
This has to do with risk management. It doesn't have to do with the "sanctity" of pieces of fabric on another piece of fabric. People just like to tell themselves that. And as I have said, the easier NPC pledging got, the more anal rules like this started to pop up.
Ditto all this for the smoking rules, I honestly hear those more from Southern chapters. |
I completely agree with you! A lot of these rules are silly, but because AOII does have a rule regarding alcohol, I think twice about it!
