Dear Angel, I read an email explaining a new Social Host policy put in place this summer, but I found it very confusing. Now there’s an updated version of the new Social Host policy. Could you help me understand what the policy means and how they updated it? Really, I just want to know if it’s okay for me to drink a beer this weekend. Signed, Sewanee Parent

Dear Concerned Parent, Yes, as of Aug. 15 any Good Times students hope to have must be premeditated and closely monitored. All Fun must be planned and registered with the Fun Patrol (a.k.a.

Any and all social organizations and/or fi rst-year student with a handle of Tito’s vodka planning Fun Events must submit a guest list that includes all guests’ names, birth dates, horoscope signs, real and fake Instragram passwords, and attorneys’ phone numbers at least two weeks in advance. Any deviation from the list will result in “going dark” and the loss of McClurg smoothie privileges. Sober Monitors, or “Buzzkills,” are required at all Entertainments and must undergo a three-month training course at a Gulag in Siberia (funded by the Social Hosts).
