Letter to the Editor: Risk management and fraternitiesAs the advisor for Furman University's Inter-Fraternity Council, I would like to take a moment and provide a little clarity to the risk management issues addressed in last week's edition. The statement "the amount of influence Furman's administration should have on off-campus events" may lead readers astray.A history of fraternityIn his article last week on Furman's alcohol policy, Brian Highsmith challenged students and administrators to "imagine what effect [an oppressive policy] would have on student life and satisfaction, much less retention or recruitment." As it turns out, Brian's thought was shared by the 1927 Furman faculty. |
