maybe i am missing something major here but why do houses have to register parties in the first place? it just seems silly to me. anyone else could have a party in their house and invite anyone.

At Ole Miss all fraternities who have a party in their own house have to register the party. I know they have been doing this for a while. They also are required to have a guest list and security at their party. I guess this is done for risk management reasons and liability reasons.

Here is a link to the Ole Miss IFC Constitution.

I suppose since you haven't rushed yet and are not in a GLO, you might not understand risk management and liability.

You have no experience with any of these issues. You are still in high school and not Greek. You have no understanding of risk management. It would be in your best interest to stop throwing around uninformed opinions now before things come back to bite you later.

OleMissGlitter, Tippiechick?

Am I reading this correctly? Liquor and wine are allowed in houses, but beer and 'light wine' are illegal?

WTH is 'light wine' anyway? I went to college in a dry county (Arkansas State). We had plenty of alcohol on campus, but I have never heard of 'light wine'.

I've never heard of that (light wine) either, and we drank pretty much everything.

Light colored wine, maybe?

I am pretty sure "light wine" refers to wine coolers. You are correct about the other too. You can have liquor and wine in the houses if you are 21, at least that is how I have interpreted the Alcohol Policy. However, it cannot be a common source and it is suppose to stay locked up when not in use. The same goes for the Ole Miss Grove on football game days. You cannot have beer in the Grove. But go figure you can fix yourself a bourbon and coke and drink away. I think it is because part of our campus is within city limits and part of our campus is out of city limits. I know in the Grove now on football game day, most people have locks on their ice chests/coolers, and that way they aren't considered a "common source."

Oh! That's what that was all about. I thought that people were of afraid it getting stolen.

I concur. That's the way I understand it...
