If the website is indeed factual, then

6. Following the 1991 NPC Rush Resolution, there are to be no men and/or alcohol involved in a chapter’s Bid Day celebrations or celebrations sponsored by individual members of the organization. Bid Day Celebrations will be considered any chapter/sister activity that begin between the extending of bids and 8:00am the morning following Bid Day.
I'm sure the date's somewhere in the Green Book (for whoever has a copy handy). |
I'm surprised to hear this was changed in 1991. Our Panhellenic advisor was a major stickler for rules, but she didn't make us change until 1994. After that point there were no boys or alcohol on bid day, which really made bid day more about sisterhood anyway. Also, this is a very vague rule..."sponsored celebrations" leaves a lot to the imagination. This doesn't sound like it forbids individual sisters of legal drinking age of imbibing if they do not "sponsor" the celebration with their other sisters. Of course, the Towson situation involved drinking on campus which is a completely different rule.
