You've got it backwards - it is the school's trying to take "control" that makes them liable to be named in a suit.
I mean, Wechsler was referencing drink specials at off-campus bars or outlets that sell to underagers. Why on earth, or how on earth, would the school do anything about that? It's a private establishment.
And with the Sam Spady case in particular, it's not been determined that she drank IN the fratenity house - just that she died there. If she had died in the bathroom of the science building, or in a dorm, would they close it?
