...utterly ludicrous to assume that the elected leader of a student group can be held responsible for the behavior of their sometimes uninvited guests—who may barhop for hours before vomiting at said student group’s function.

Enter the NSSE (pronounced "Nessie"), which tries to provide a detailed picture of how well a school is judged by its customers, i.e., the students who attend them.
