Also, having personals for future Issues backed u p weeks ahead of time prevents current information from being on the personal page. The Housing Office and other groups often use the personal page as a way to Inform students of parking changes, etc. As for expanding the personal page, forget it.

IN C VV O IVI r\ l\ t K Those two are the only advantages I can come up with for using fake I.D. As for the disadvantages, there are many. Most people don't realize the seriousness of their actions In using fake identification. For example, you may be put on probation until graduation, suspended from Longwood, or even expelled from college for this offense. If you are caught by the local police, you may spend the night in Jail and be clobbered with a heavy fine, or you may even go to court, and conviction of this offense would stay on your police record for the rest of your life. As you can see. the disadvantages greatly outweigh the advantages. It Is very easy to have a good time without drinking, and you'll feel better in the morning.

F.I.P.G.'s Insure Fraternity Survival Reprinted from "The 8Ur and Lamp" Fall 1989 Vol. LXXV No. 4. F.I.P.G. For many college undergraduates, this acronym has become a buzz word, one that strikes fear In the hearts. It means that the executives of several national fraternities have banded together to take the fun out of fraternity. It means no kegs, no beer and no fun. The truth Is. undergraduate fraternity chapters need the Fraternity Insurance Purchasing Group, or a similar group, to stay alive in today's litigious society. FIPG is here to Insure the survival of fraternities, not to kill fraternities. FIPG is designed to allow fraternities to purchase previously unobtainable Insurance. Fraternities are able to purchase insurance because of their adherence to FIPG's risk management policy. The policy addresses alcohol and drugs, hazing, sexual abuse, and fire, health, safety and education issues. The policy.
By ERIC J. ALMQU1ST which Pi Kappa Phi adopted last school year, has Its greatest affect on chapters in Its guidelines on alcohol. Although we, as undergraduates, may not want to admit it, one of the biggest problems facing our chapters today Is the misuse of alcohol. Why should I Join a fraternity that wont let me get drunk? Consider these facts: •Almost every "Incident" on campus involves alcohol. •The leading cause of death among 16-to 24-yearolds Is alcohol-related auto accidents. •Alcoholism is a disease. Alcohol abuse is a very serious problem on college campuses. And because fraternities are a microcosm of college campuses, the problem exists there as well. Because of this, fraternities are pointed out as the cause of such problems. Anyone who attends a fraternity function and Is involved in an accident can in turn sue the fraternity. Without insurance, there is no way to protect
personal liability against such incidents. Alcohol abuse leads to irresponsible behavior, which in turn causes many of the problems. "The singular and most burdensome problem confronting the American college fraternity Is the responsible use of alcohol," says Mark Metcalf. a practicing attorney in Kentucky and an alumnus of Sigma Pi fraternity. Metcalf adds. "The American legal system cannot and does not Ignore the dreadful consequences of accidents which indiscriminately snuff out the young lives of collegians every day." It Is this dilemma that has opened the door for serious liability problems in college fraternities. FIPG has become one of the ways to close the door. FIPG has restricted the purchase and consumption of alcohol In our chapters. It has done so, not to take the fun out of the fraternities, but to insure their very survival.
