Yes. Columbia is in the middle of Missouri, about halfway between St. Louis and Kansas City. Fraternity formals are in places like Memphis, Chicago, Lake of the Ozarks. They are weekend-long events. A fraternity member will invite a date, drive her in his car several hours away to the venue, rent a hotel room to share with her overnight, and then bring her back.
