#13by: Risk Adviser
Hi Ladies,
I am an adult risk adviser for one of the sororities. If your organization is insured my MJ Insurance, as most are, they have determined that if a bunch of women from the same sorority gather (anywhere)it becomes an official sorority party even if no checklist was submitted for insurance coverage by the chapter. If something happens while you are drinking, your house and every member of your chapter can be libel, and since you are drinking without claiming it as a house event and submitting proper checklist/insurance paperwork, your chapter is probably completely uninsured. You would be much better off to create a formal chapter-wide event with alcohol at the off campus gathering place to make sure you are insured.

No... really a risk adviser (who can not spell). No B'ham mom would know about MJ Insurance. I am just informing you of what your insurance company has determined: if there is a gathering of sisters, even if unofficial, it becomes an sorority event. If you are breaking sorority rules, i.e. drinking without filing as an event with alcohol for coverage, the sorority will not have insurance and can not protect you or your sorority. I think this policy update came out last year. If something happens, you, your sisters, and your advisers can all be sued . Just sharing because I dont want to be sued and lose my house. Don't wish the same for your parents. FYI, sororities are mostly sued by their own members.
