Point in fact: a sorority I advised did an "adventure challenge" course involving rock climbing, zip lines, and various other activities. Did you know that? I don't think so. It happened. You just didn't hear about it. We didn't tell you.
As for a surfing outing, oh my gosh. You have got to be kidding me. We forgot to tell you about that too, apparently.
You might want to broaden your perspective a bit. And not stereotype locales while you're at it. I'm actually agreeing with Kevin, so I'm going to take a screen shot just to prove that this really happened.

Guess there's no such thing as a friendly, rational conversation on here. "Perhaps narrow, based on your posts" - that's low. I find that offensive, actually.
If we disagree about something, that's fine. But I'm not going to put you down for it, make you feel like a coward.
I don't find this particular story/topic to have a right or wrong, however I do think that this "outing" would not fly in many other parts of the country. I would have never signed off on it; even with the slightest risk factor, there are other things to do, I'm sure, in Texas.
