Abstract
Drinking in Greekl ife is a major part in college organizations. Even though drinkingi s illegal when a person is under 21 greek life opens up oppurtunities to drink at an underage with less of a cost. There has been many attempts to ban drinking and have sorority and fraternities go dry, however, they really are not dry. The answer is because of the importance of alcohol in social ritual, connection, and behavior for college students and has become integral to the meaning of fraternities and sororities. Drinkign is used for ritual, hazing, loyalty and connection. In college drinking is used to get people tot he party and help have fun and relax.

My story

Your Story. How has your project evolved over the course of the semester? How has your understanding of the project deepened or changed over time? What influenced you most? What have you learned about the topic, about the research process, or about yourself as a writer?

My project has evolved over the semester by my topic changed many of times and got more into depth . for example it started as drinking then it turned to what do people find in drinking, then drinking in greek life , then the attraction of drinking in greek life and now it ended at greek like dry, never. The article by barry influenced me the most and the law. I learned that i am not that bad of a writer and i should give myself credit for my writing ebcause it is not as bad as i thought.
