Killing time watching American Idol, did a quick search for threads on here about fires at fraternity or sorority houses. This isn't exhaustive, but at the least a good showing of why fire safety IS important. Apart from the property damage, the lives of our brothers and sisters are on the line. As has been said, many fraternity houses are older structures and are fire traps.
