Amy and Katie, who have been chapter members for three years, decide they want to have a party at their off campus apartment on a Friday night. The party is not announced during Wednesday night’s chapter meeting. However, as soon as chapter meeting was adjourned but before everyone left, Amy announced to everyone in attendance, “Katie and I are having a keg party at our apartment this Friday night. Tell your friends. I hope you can come. If you plan on coming, pay me $5 on your way out tonight that will go toward buying the kegs.” After this announcement, the chapter president, emphasized, “This is not an official function.”

Why is this not okay?

Providing alcohol to minors; open party; serving alcohol from a common source; this would likely constitute a sorority function (despite what the president says, etc.). Also, it is a criminal offense in some states for a resident to allow minors to drink on the premises. If anyone is injured on the way home from the party, civil liability could follow.

Our sorority is having a party with the Beta Epsilon Rho fraternity on Thursday night. To prevent the sisters from driving drunk and to meet Panhellenic standards, Amy, the social chair, asks for BER members to come to the house to pick up the sisters. The fraternity and sorority each have identified five members who will serve as designated drivers. The five sorority designated drivers, however, all decide to drink.

If an intoxicated sister needs a ride home, what should she do?

By calling a taxi or shuttle service; calling other members who have not been drinking. Stress how important it is that an intoxicated member should NOT get in the car alone with a male she does not know, including the fraternity’s designated drivers. This puts the member in danger of a date rape scenario. Under this scenario, if the member does not make it home safely, our organization potentially has civil liability for assuming a duty to provide designated drivers, but failing to do so.
