It is to demonstrate that this is where the alcohol problem lives, where it resonates, where it is nurtured. In fact just last night I was watching a news program that began by reporting on alcohol abuse on college campuses across the country. It didn t end there. The reporter then tied a young man s death in a fraternity hazing incident to the results of alcohol abuse on campus. All of the facts were correct.
Alcohol abuse is involved in almost all reported fraternity hazing deaths.
WE can t get mad about that. There is no right wing conspiracy to bring the Greek System down. As the saying goes, we have met the enemy, and the enemy is us . . . It s real, and it s coming. Several national fraternities have already made the commitment to become alcohol-free in the year 2000, and many others are talking about doing the same.
