I don't take my frustrations out on collegians. I just don't see the value in not living in the house because you can't have alcohol there. I lived in for 3 years, and never felt the need to drink there. If we wanted to drink before going to the bars, we went to an off-campus apartment of a friend or other sister.
I think, given the choice of having a sorority house or being able to have alcohol in our residence, the house would win hands down. It's a PLUS of being a sorority member. That house is the hub of sorority activities, as well as the home of the chapter. I can't imagine not having a house where everyone congregates, has meetings, eats dinner, etc. The one thing we didn't do there was party. #1, it wasn't allowed, but honestly, #2, we didn't want our house to look like the disgusting fraternity houses and some of the local sorority houses who did host parties. And we didn't suffer in terms of recruiting members to live in either.
