Sororities NOT upholding Alcoholess Mixing

It is my recent experience that many of the sororities which have adopted/approved the Panhellenic resolution regarding alcohol NOT being present at social functions held with fraternities are in some cases giving nothing but lip service to these policies.

Instead, these groups are requesting that the fraternities help to circumvent the policies by NOT listing all the sorority members when registering these events (as required) with the university. This, apparently, is done in an effort to avoid "proof" that these chapters are indeed mixing exclusively with a given fraternity. The fraternities are told by the sorority social chairs, that if the fraternity lists the actual membership of the sorority without numerous random names (people who will not actually be invited) that the mixer can't happen.

I have personally challenged sorority advisors to go to the local photagrapher that takes pictures at all the mixers, and look at the numerous beer cans, drinks, etc that are not only present, but in the hands of their members. Each has told me that they'd "rather not,"

We as a fraternity do not have policies against alcohol at social functions, and are willing to respect those of these groups, but we are being disincented from doing so.

What gives? I don't expect many women to come forward and say, "we ignore the rules too." What about advisors and national officers out there? Don't ask me to rat them out. I have gone directly to chapter advisors with no results.
