<p>Well, the prohibition against alcohol spending is already in place. I'm not sure that there are other rules in place already regarding how the money is spent, and the money for this year has already been allocated. I suppose the administration could threaten disciplinary action if the funds are used in this way, but so far as I know, the Simmons house committee wouldn't be violating any rules already in place by hiring strippers with their house funds.</p>
<p>At any rate, the rules can be circumvented -- for example, if one were to buy a large number of paper plates, then return the paper plates and buy an equivalent amount of alcohol, but turn in the receipt for the paper plate purchase, house funds could be used to purchase alcohol by way of paper plates.</p>
