Maybe it’s a good idea to listen to mom and dad about staying away from college frat parties. I just watched Buffy the Vampire Slayer, “Reptile Boy”. In this episode, Buffy is fed up with her life as the slayer and her high school troubles. She just wants to go out and have one night of juvenile fun. Cordelia on the other hand has decided she wants to find a rich college boyfriend. They both decide to solve their problem by going to a frat party together. Two high school girls at a frat party full of drunken college boys. No problem there right? Anyway, they go and at first are having a good time and letting loose….then they’re drugged and kidnapped. Not so far from reality. The part that is far from reality is when they wake up chained to the wall in the frat house basement. Next to them is a giant serpent that they are being sacrificed to by the frat boys. Apparently it’s an annual thing. Luckily Buffy’s friends come and rescue them. It made me think about college frat parties realistically. Every Friday and Saturday night you walk along the campus streets and find several houses lit up and full of drunken giddy college students. What else lurks behind those walls? How many rapists do we have on campus, how many sick and twisted people….impossible to know? Now, don’t get me wrong, I’m all for a good party. I think the way people proceed to enter and leave is what’s a little sketchy. Buddy system everyone!
I have to agree with always being with a friend at night, even if you aren't at a party. Don't drink out of control and always have someone there with you to ensure each other's safety!
