Yes, there are many who disagree and some who refuse to abide by the policy; however, if they do not abide by the policy and there is an incident, the insurance does not cover them. It is just that simple! Would you rather change or see your fraternity go under because of one law suit which is all it would take if the insurance coverage is not there.
id rather not change and look at other alternatives in making sure guys arent stupid, but id bet willing to bet the fraternity becomes small if we go dry, rush will hurt, active retention will hurt. its not either go dry or no coverage, how bout we look at other companies? id explore other options first, so to answer your question, no, at this time, we dont change.
