Sororities' antics spur school alcohol efforts

OXFORD, Ohio – Sorority spring formals call up visions of young women in colorful dresses dancing the night away — not vomiting on tables, urinating in sinks or having sex in closets.

The drunken shenanigans of three sororities at Miami University in southwest Ohio sound like something out of "Animal House" and were especially startling for a school that frequently makes the top 50 in a U.S News & World Report academic ranking but never makes lists of big-time party schools.

The school suspended two of the sororities and put the third on probation. A task force is reviewing discipline and education policies on student behavior and alcohol, and the campus group governing sororities says it will begin teaching new members to speak out when they witness bad behavior.

“If the average UT coed from today had visited my practice in 1958, I would have assumed she was a prostitute.”

That’s a keeper.

He stated flatly: “If the average UT coed from today had visited my practice in 1958, I would have assumed she was a prostitute. The average UT coed in 1958 was a virgin. Those who weren’t were either married or had usually been in a relationship with one boyfriend throughout high school.”

And the way girls are dressing and dancing these days you would swear they were prostitutes, too!

These events occurred locally and the Owner of the Lake Lindsey Lodge is a family friend. What Pi Beta Phi did at the lodge was not fully reported in the article. That sorority should be banned. Those involved should do some jail time and made to pay for all damages plus fined. Pi Beta Phi acquired a bus for transportation to the lodge. They were intoxicated before they got on the bus. While en route they had the bus stop so they could urinate on the side of the road.

The ONION made a news video that perfectly fit the description of Pi Beta Phi.

My Mom is Pi Beta Phi [aka Pi Phi]. She and her sisters of her time are appalled at these antics ...

'Course college has changed much since her time - just ask Bluto Blutarski ...

How about this, if we are going to have a drinking age of 22, lets - I don’t know - enforce it on college campuses?

I am more worried about their being able to VOTE at 18
