This was my experience at UCO. Back circa 2000, we had an ATO pledge get his hip shattered after being run over while being passed out drunk in the middle of a dirt road. The University banned all alcohol at all functions. Did fraternities and sororities stop having alcohol at functions? Hell no. The rule was completely ignored and any semblance of control over Greek Life and alcohol was lost.

The school has sensibly back peddled from that and now we observe what are probably some similar rules to what you have at UNT. I think the current rules work fine and agree UNT's decision here was very knee jerk. Hopefully they reverse course and just start enforcing the rules they already had a little better.
