Just to clarify: Alpha Xi Delta's AF policy was adopted by overwhelming resolution of the voting membership (the majority of which are collegiate chapter presidents) after a lengthy discussion at the 1999 National Convention which (again) was dominated by collegiate women. It was not a "top-down" policy, and I was and am very proud of the stand we took and how we got there. It wasn't a risk management issue for us, so much as a statement of support for those men's fraternities that had elected to eliminate alcohol from their chapter facilities (which is why we have the form of policy we do -- facilities, not functions).
