I don't know about other campuses, but we don't pledge guys who are of-age... that would make them Juniors.

Not necessarily. A guy might begin college a year or two late as a Freshman. I know we have a guy on this board that is around 30 and an active member.

EW is correct in that chapters that pledge "traditional students" are unlikely to have a pledge that is 21.

I disagree. My boyfriend's little is 25 and was just elected the new Consul for the coming year. He wasn't able to go to college until later than most, but he brings a lot of experience and insight with his age and unique perspective.

I know of one too, not on this board. At some third tier college somewhere in Arkansas.
However, traditional chapters generally pledge guys in their freshman year when they're 18. Not sophomore or junior or whatever.

If only there were establishments in college towns that would tacitly accept obviously fake ID's... we might even call them "freshman bars". Oh well, I guess they'll just have to wait until they're 21 to go out in Athens/Tuscaloosa/Oxford/Statesboro, just like everyone else.

We would go to the bars all the time when I would visit friends in these cities when we weren't 21 yet.

Athens and Tusc def have places that accept underage fake id's.
Statesboro?
why would you even want to go to Statesboro? dry town and one bar that is byob... lame as hell. I can think of much better places like Columbia, Knoxville, or Gainseville in the respective region.
