Can you even regulate that?

Alum and college members should be aware that whenever they are in public, they are representing XYZ. I think new members tend to be coddled too much.
I think this is an interesting discussion because look at the way some of us represent on Greekchat.... where the users have identified clearly what group they belong to, and they're using profanity, or putting someone down, etc., because those are their personal ideas, and they don't seem to regard the affect that their personal actions have back on their fraternity/sorority....
And when you point out that their behavior is not appropriate, they accuse you of not letting them express themselves. Say what?!?!
Some people just shouldn't be given letters in the first place because they're not mature enough to represent a group-- at either age 18 or 38!!!!!
