I agree with the KDs. Once you're in an administrative or advisory position, you begin to see just how much trouble "a little harmless fun" can do.
For their hours of fun, I guarantee that Sigma Chi's and Theta's nationals will put them through many times more hours of hell and rightfully so. Why? For the same reason that I have to fill out 40 pages of paperwork to be pre-approved every time I have to take my Scouts anywhere! For the same reason that teachers can't tell parents that their kids are hyper anymore! Because our country is so litigious!
All it takes is one pissed-off Theta parent and Sigma Chi could be out thousands of dollars. Don't you guys know that people who have no right to receive any money in a suit get it anyway? You never know what kind of nuts you have on a jury who'll award money to a complainant!
And Theta's nationals are *not* going to want their girls to look like hobags either. Can't you just see rushees looking at the partypics site and saying, "I really want to be a Theta and have crap poured on me"? I don't think so!
The repercussions of this will last for a long time.
