Look at it this way, the national image of greek frat housing is what? Frat house=party house. The reason why they are trying to make houses dry is to cut back on that image and boost greek support. We all know what greek housing is like, we know what it is, and how greeks act. The problem isn't with the housing or the greek community, it is with the "non-greek" community. Housing at my school was completely shut down about a decade ago. This is because "partying" was the only thing that the public saw, they refused to see the greek orgs for what they were. They didn't want "their" community to be brought down because of greek housing. Just think, you still have your house. Many campuses won't let greek housing be available to their greek orgs. If you get a house off campus, it isn't approved by the nationals, there is no win-win situation. Socials are fun, parties are fun, but don't let this bring you down, show people what greeks really stand for and why they are wrong. Maybe things will change, who knows?
