At my campus, at least, I've discovered that national sororities don't drink any less than locals, they just disguise it better.

Our dues are about $400, to everyone who was wondering. Also, there is no way that this money is going to alcohol because my chapter has advisers visiting ALL the time, and they would figure it out. When we DO have mixer type things, they are unofficial and we usually have to pay at the door. I trust that they money really is being spent on catering, food, and supplies, etc. but I just get really frustrated with some of the girls who flat out just say, "deal with it". We just elected a new council, so hopefully I can talk with some of them. I'd like to get this problem dealt with so the next 3.5 years for me, and hopefully anyone else who comes along with allergies, is safe!
Thanks for your help everyone!
