If I'm not mistaken--don't the NIC and NPC have the same guidelines for alcohol risk management? I know we are only allowed to co-sponsor events with groups that have the same alcohol policy.
I've noticed that there is a strong prejudice that the "white" fraternities and sororities REQUIRE drinking as part of their new member education. I had this "discussion" (if that's what you want to call it) with my cousin (who's in a NPHC sorority) about that...she INSISTED that I had been forced to drink as part of my new member education process...and that I didn't want to admit it, because "they ALL do it".
I can safely say that I DID NOT DRINK AT ALL during new member education activities, not even a glass of wine at chapter dinners.
The NPHC and IFC parties I've attended are basically the same, but more is allowed with the IFC groups because they have their own housing. Still...the kegs flow just as freely. There are still the same drunken nuts.
