The "legal" beer we were allowed to drink after age 18 was "no more than 3.2 percent alcohol." The "high" beer might have been 3.3 percent -- and in many cases was. It could go up to 6 or 7 percent, depending on the brand name. If you drank enough, you could still get fairly trashed on "low" beer.

I was thinking "compared to the Everclear that guys used to go to Ohio to buy" (they don't sell that in Michigan) rather than other beers, actually. Nobody used to go to Ohio to party as they did (still do) with Windsor because you could really only get that beer anyway and it wasn't worth the trip.
It's not only fraternities that trash houses while living there after a chapter is closed or after a serious house cleaning (meaning suspension of several members) either. I've seen many problems with women who were suspended continuing to live in the house. I don't have enough information on those types of housing situation (where the University owns the house) to know what their actual housing contract states. Do they state that they can be evicted if the student org ceases to exist?
