I don't know if we are going to survive in a recongizable way if we don't. We already have that reputation for drinking whether deserved or not.

It would be fairly easy to spin the campaign as one that just represents our constituency.

I think it is generally understood that sororities have been spared to a significant degree some of the consequences, because generally fraternities will provide the place, and the alcohol. Therefore we mostly assume the blame.

I can understand the sorority position on this because as long as this status quo continues you will be sheltered behind the gradually shrinking shield of the fraternities.

Until one day we are gone. Or completely emasculated.

Enough of my friends got DWIs in college and got them dismissed taking the same kind of defensive driving that you now take for speeding tickets. That's why I think this would be a tough sell. Right now we're comparing apples and oranges. Regardless, GLOs should not take up this issue. While we have the organization and manpower to take on big issues, it would be taken the wrong way by too many people and would never get past any committee.
