She did try to rush -- she came through our house first rounds and we cut her immediately. I'm not sure if she ended up in a house, but my guess would be no. I'll let you guys know if I hear any updates.
Our high school had a group called Peers Educating Peers, where high school students went to the middle schools and taught students there to say no to drugs, smoking, underage drinking, and other "risky situations." It was composed mostly of partiers, too -- I think they did it because it looked good on their college applications and you got out of class to do it.
Student council kids and athletes also have to sign pledges not to drink or do drugs (student council for the whole year, athletes during their season -- but many athletes were two or three-season athletes), but most of them broke that. The problem with that policy was that they didn't have to prove you were drinking -- if you were caught at a party with alcohol at it, you were suspended from the team. I didn't drink in high school, but because of that policy I had to be careful when just hanging out with my friends at parties while they drank, because I'd get in just as much trouble.
