Tip #18 – The Sober Brother Buddy System: Campus Safety Awareness Month

Fraternities giving parties should designate, on a rotating basis, several “sober brothers” who agree not to drink and are responsible for monitoring the behavior of party-goers to make sure nothing gets out of hand. 

Some of their responsibilities would be to make sure no one spikes the punch and no one is using date rape drugs on party participants.  Upstairs rooms should be monitored periodically so that no coerced sexual activities are taking place and any sexual activity involving more than one person should be strictly forbidden (that’s called gang rape, ya’all).  No one who’s had a lot to drink should be allowed to drive and if someone needs a ride home, a sober brother would be the driver or arrange for car service.  Crime Prevention 101
