My son lives in an unaffiliated house next to a “silent” (no letters) fraternity house. He can do anything he wants and the university is powerless to do anything because they are not a “group” on campus. If the fraternity gets caught having a “silent” house to have parties, they can get punished.

Oh come on. They call it sexual assault. We used to call it partying.

Well if alcohol is BANNED then I’m sure the problem is well on its way to being solved...

I wonder if someone told Elizabeth Dole back when she wanted states to raise the drinking age to 21 to combat teenage drunken driving that that would not necessarily foster responsible drinking habits among young people. This seems to be a good example of that idea.

(Yes, I know they’re not California, but UNC is known for having no problems with a 1.6 GPA ;))
