WHAAAT?!?! I never said anything against having a des. driver, that is a given! This sorority I was talking about had the program for anything the sisters might be doing on weekends, it had nothing to do with chapter events. It was to give a ride home from bar, frat party, club, whatever. They administered the program through the chapter so everyone took their turn. My point was that to ban a program where the girls took RESPONSIBILITY for helping each other is messed up.
As for what I said about being in a rural area, the DD is a given there too.
My primary reason for being opposed to alcohol free housing is that I find it hypocritical. It makes people binge drink alone before they get to events. It says "alcohol is OK out of the house but evil in the house." The third party policies make the Greeks have to move to bars for private parties and can dry up social options for everyone else, making them even more antagonistic about Greeks.
If you talk the talk, walk the walk. If your national policy is going to ban alcohol in the house and take that much of an in loco parentis attitude, they'd better provide a way for you to get home if you drink outside the house or alternate desirable activities, which I have not seen happening.
