And fun doesn't even need to include alcohol but it seems that these days the word fun means alcohol to headquarters. There are rules in place that are justified, and I understand them, but there is no room for freedom to have fun anymore and that is what I am really starting to hate about being in a greek organization.

I totally agree. When I was a pledge it was a blast. Now that I am a member, my sorority life doesn't extend beyond business meetings. There are some cool parties, but there few and far in between. If greek life doesn't start to show some more spunk... I don't know how I can tell people at recruitment about all the "fun" we have. Philanthropy aside (a worthy and noble cause), greek life is about having fun and that doesn't neccessary mean consuming large amounts of alcohol. I would rather go to a dry party than no party at all.
