Third-Party Providers and Wet Social Policies

[kddani]

Saying the sorority isn't liable isn't really truthful in any of these circumstances. You can bet your house that if something happened, the group would be a named party in the lawsuit. Whether or not they are liable would be a matter for a jury to decide. So these false senses of security and passing off the liability to the bar are just that, false. If a sorority sponsored the event, that would be more than enough to establish a prima facie case, and enough to get the sorority as a party in the trial.
