I was referring to ANY party thrown by an HBGLO. I'm with y'all, if I EVER see a pledge at a party...well, that's another topic.
As my Sorors & I have stated, keg parties & the like are not our thing. There are 2 threads (at least)on GC in which someone is looking for party themes.
http://www.greekchat.com/forums/ubb/...ML/000003.html and
http://www.greekchat.com/forums/ubb/...ML/000016.html There were a few that did not involve alcohol and most, if not all of the responses were from members of non-HBGLOs. The ideas sound fun but why include alcohol? Does alcohol make them "more" fun?
As for the whole "I'm over 21 therefore I should be able to drink at my frat/sorority party" true, you should be able to, BUT we all know good and well that under-aged folks will be in attendance, and unless you're going to be carding folks at the door and handing out plastic bracelets to those enough to drink, it's your RESPONSIBILITY not to allow minors access to alcohol, unless your chapter has money like that to waste on insurance.
For shadokat and anyone else who is confused:
hazing and pledging are 2 different things. The terms are NOT INTERCHANGEABLE. If it helps, looks at it this way: pledging is an EVENT, hazing is a THING that can happen while you are PLEDGING. Like I said in my first response, once we learn the difference between the two, we'll be on our way to solving the problem.
