Brothers,
I did not expect to hear a lot of interest in writing Risk
Managenet (RiM) policies. I got rather buried in it last year when
I helped to write the risk management policies for my chapter. We spent a
great deal of time dealing with the drinking issue and I would love to be
of help to you. I guess that there are a few basic questions that have to
be answered before you can write a policy.

try putting pen to paper (or fingers to keys) so that you do not have
lots of pissed off people and policies that you never follow. I am from a
chapter that parties hard. It took a lot of work, but we finally came up
with policies that are legally safe and that most of us are willing to
follow.
