I'm going to have to agree with everything that KABillyMac and drinknNole has said. God Bless Beer! I am 22 so I can say this! And to everyone who thinks that drinking is the only reason that someone joins a fraternity or sorority, they're wrong. It's a great past time though if you're careful with it! There's a lot more that goes along with joining, everybody should know that. You can't tell me that you haven't had a few alcoholic beverages with some of your brothers/sisters at one point in time. Having fun with friends at tailgates or whatever and having a few beers shouldn't be looked upon as a bad thing. I've had so much fun in the past going to fraternity houses when they're having a party or a tailgate. If they ban those, I'll cry my eyes out!
And as far as a clean house is concerned, if fraternities want to have their houses clean and nice, they'll do it. If they choose not to, then that's their business. I'm going to get in trouble for this one but they can always get their new members to clean the house. My sorority doesn't make our new girls do it but I've seen it done by fraternities. No harm in that!
drinknNole, you're the bomb for expressing how you feel about fraternity houses going dry. On our campus, a couple of the fraternities have already gone dry. I don't know how they're doing it or if they are really abiding by the rules. Our IFC/Panhellenic Councils have put into effect a rule that there will be no more socials at fraternity houses anymore. They're slowly trying to make the Greek community here a dry community. I'm not saying that I agree with this and I'm not saying that I don't. I just don't know how the fraternities are going to do it if or when it happens. I'm used to it though by being in a sorority on this campus. We can't have any alcohol on our premises. It's banned. I think that's true with most sororities on other campuses. I hope your Nationals doesn't make you guys go dry. That would really suck! You'll just have to take it one day at a time or just have parties over at your brothers' apartments. I'm on your side!
