AMEN TO THAT! Why is it so damn important to drink in the sorority or fraternity house? I will admit that I went to many a frat party/mixer/etc. in houses, but there are other ways to have social events without doing it inside the houses. How about instead of having a mixer every week, you do it once a month, and the money that you spend every week goes into a pot and pays for a bus to take all members to the mixer at the third party vendor? There are ways to have a GREAT time and also follow alcohol free housing. The fact of the matter is that those that are underage will have to follow the law!
I know I went to college in the mid 90s, when we pretty much partied most nights at fraternities and drank underage, etc. But unfortunately, the ways of the world have changed. The lawsuit happy society we live in is a product of these changes, and with that comes changes in the way our organizations have to cover their asses, plain and simple. And I can't say I blame one of them for doing so...I want a sorority for another 500 years.
