But I think its like the prohibition situation, you have just have to concede that 18-20 year olds are going to drink and that coming up with stiffer and stiffer penalities is just a way of persecuting a group of citizens

As far as Greek Life goes, this generally accepted social activitiy is going to be the bane of all of us because its a behavioral fact: People drink under age.

ITs the single biggest reason why chapters get their pulled. And in almost every case where the drinkers are underage, the chapter is auotmatically at fault.

I think greeks should head a lobby to do this before we eventually lose it all.
Yeah, but providing minors with alcohol is a crime and the behavior is criminal. Stop providing alcohol to minors and you won't have a problem.

If they obtain the booze somewhere else and do not consume it on your property with your knowledge, there's no risk. Grow up and recruit academics rather than alcoholics.
