Oh, this one is rich. So let's think about it: thousands of 18-19-somethings away from parental supervision for the first time in their lives and with ample access to alcohol and "Former Runner" expects them to all be little-Mother Teresa's. Perhaps, you were contemplating life in a convent at that point in your life - don't impose your beliefs on others. I appreciate the earlier poster saying something about educating females [that go to these events]. I mean, what happens at these parties when there aren't any "secretary hoes"...?Also, jamin's point about human nature. There are plenty of guys [probably the majority] on these campuses that don't go to these events that get over-looked because they aren't deemed dominant/sexually-active/alpha enough. Women may say they don't like these events or behaviours but someone is attending them...Ladies, when you hold half of the equation, you're responsibly for half of the outcome...

...I thought I was going to find a place intelligently engaged with the world. Instead, I found a place that was even more insular than my high school was. People were more concerned with the next party than the endemic poverty that surrounded the school. Nobody ever left Georgetown. It's such a shame that the critical mass of brilliant young adults that is undergrad doesn't do more to change the world according to their principles whatever those may be. Instead, there seems to be an undergrad focus on drinking and sex to the exclusion of most else.
