I'm pretty surprised they let their pledges drink ...

The drinking age in the UK is 18, unless it's changed since the last time I was on the other side of the pond.

AEPhi's policy (I believe most NPC sororities have similar policies) is that new members and sisters are expected to abide by federal, state, and local laws, including those related to alcohol consumption. We have no chapters/colonies outside the US, but if we were to charter a chapter in, say, Canada, it would be ok if NMs of legal age drank (drinking ages are 18 or 19 depending on the province). (It would be ok if a NM of legal age in a US chapter drank, but how often do you see a 21-year-old new member?)

We also have a policy that no alcohol is to be served at chapter events unless it's through a third-party vendor. So I was surprised to see booze at pref and at presents. But then again, this TV sorority is wildly diverging from what normally goes on in an NPC chapter.

Ahhh... I love a good trainwreck. Who wants popcorn?
