Social rules

[Eleven7]

This is what it states as far as buses and such.

"Safe transportation must be provided for chapter events:
1) if the event is held more than 60 minutes from college campus, whether or not alcoholic beverages will be
served.
2) if alcoholic beverages will be served, regardless of location.

Buses Safe round-trip transportation in form of buses must be provided for and used by all members and guests for
an out-of-town event. Alcohol may not be consumed by anyone on the bus. A bus company should provide a
certificate of insurance and current state and local licenses. If buses return members and guests to a central location
that is some distance from their residences, a safe means of transportation to their residences must be provided. The
chapter may hire taxis or use designated drivers/walkers to provide this service."


They've been saying we have to have buses to all events, but since its a mixer, they're letting us use the DD list instead.

No I didn't. It says "safe transportation." The buses part is separate. At least that's the way I read it.

I'll say what I said on here a long time ago - if a sorority's HQ is forcing a group to use buses for EVERY mixer, for some chapters the cost would be so prohibitive that the result would be no more mixers. Or completely dry mixers. Any sorority who wants to do that to their members is insane.

OK! My bad (about "safe transportation"). I'm going to drink more coffee and hope that helps...

I think it's the alcohol issue that's the sticking point.
