Our administration is very hard on drinking, when horrible tragedy's like this happen I always ponder and realize they are doing the right thing. Alcohol is outta control in a lot of SEC schools, especially during football weeekends.
One thing I do not like about alcohol free campuses and no beer at houses is it gives the police more power and the ability to come into your house whenever they want. The cops have way too much authority here, they come into our house and have walk throughs three or four times a night on weekends and that is ridiculous because we are not doing anything wrong.
If a chapter gets caught more than 3 times with underage students with alcohol they get put on probation for a semester, which is not good, extremely hard to recruit here when that happens. The cops are usually good at most of the fraternity's houses I have been at with studdents over the age of 21 because they are more responsible and not like a fresh. trying to show that they can drink a lot and acting cool.
Overall, I hope more schools administrations alcohol policy's become harsher such as UT's because with all the liabilities and high insurance today it is stupid not to have it and it is dangerous for administrations to not have it as a top priority to contain alcohol abuse on campus and limit it as much as possible.
