Social vs. Service

P.S. JayBEE...I never said that you did not have insurance. I said we wouldn't plan an event with uninsusred/underinsured groups. That may or may not include you. When I say insurance, I mean the same all NPC chapter's must have to cover SOCIAL events, where there is alcohol present.

Drinking is a difficult issue and if I were a social chair, I would not plan an event with any groups that did not meet our risk management standards, that may or may not include your group, but at ECU that includes service, local, and teams. I don't think my group is too high and mighty to have an event with these groups, I know my chapter is more important than a party that may or may not result in an accident that will jeapordize(sp?) my chapter/members.

It is too important to slide by and be PC about this topic. We shouldn't mix until we have the same rules, like NPC and IFC. We have rules contingent on the others.

If you want to dispute the fact that social organizations don't do as much service as yours go ahead, be my guest! Service groups were founded for that purpose, right?

As for a greek week event, it would be up to the council to invite who they want. Our greek week is funded by IFC, so they get to decide who can participate if it can down to that. But our events, like Greek Sing are in bars and no one can say who can and cannot come.

I wish we could all accept that we joined different groups for a reason, and yes that may mean, we don't do everything everyone else does!

AMEN!
