It's not up to the university to prosecute individuals. That is a function of law enforcement and the judicial system. If an individual is not violating the law then there's no problem. So don't participate in underage drinking, don't provide persons who are underage with alcohol, know the laws in your city/county/state about social hosting and follow them.
It is up to the university to establish reasonable policies for the orgs that are guests on their campus. Perhaps you should try to work with your campus to provide venues for and create events and activities that give students opportunities to socialize that do not revolve around alcohol. IMO underage drinking often occurs when and where students who are under 21 have few options of other things to do, and few positive examples of how to host and enjoy events that are alcohol free.
