I completely agree with Josh, but at the same time, I also believe that most people who join Greek organizations do so for the sake of parties and alcohol and that sort of thing. Those of us who choose to be responsible are in the minority. I know this is a negative perspective to have on the Greek community, but I've seen enough evidence of it to believe it.

Okay I can see the arguement for this in the case of people joining being underage.... however how do those who can drink legally act? Are they more responsible (less binge, or drink to get drunk)? Or do they act just like the underage drinkers?
The reason I ask is next year pretty much all the 1st years will be underage for the first time (well in the last 30 years or so) at my school. I have dealt with the issue from the school's point of view, which invovled a gradual reduction in "wet" events, and the elimination of residence "keggers" (though that one will take a while despite the school's wishes). GLO are have not been recognized by the school since 1960 so..... there has been no concerted effort to look at the issue from the GLO perspective. I want to know more so as to get a heads up for the upcoming year and future years.
