Fraternities, as exclusive social organizations, are likely in their final days. I don’t see todays leftists that run universities tolerating their presence much longer. When it happens, they’ll go quickly.

So with free speech nearly dead the next target is the destruction of free association.
Time for CW2.

Harvard must commit to increasing the budget for student social life and creating better physical social spaces. Beyond Harvard social events, student organizations will continue to play a critical role in organizing social spaces for students on campus. and then the author goes on to recommend Harvard have a nightclub.
I'm sorry, but I thought that the more expensive institutions were for learning a upper income bracket marketable life skill, not 'social organizing' and 'party spaces'?

Liberty = “free association”, and is contrary to mandated association as in an attempt at social engineering. There is no true Liberty when free association - which also means free to not associate, is not honored.
College student clubs should not be restricted by who is and is not in them, for any reason, and that is not to say that behavior - drugs, violence, drunken brawls, ect., should not be part of rules that get clubs in trouble.

I was a “frat boy” at the University of Michigan in the 70’s. At that time, the university pretty much had a “hands off” policy toward the Greek system. They provided office space for the Pan-Hellenic council, played some minor role in organizing intramural sports, and some other things like that. They were certainly not inspecting frat houses, monitoring parties, etc. I thought it was a good system. Our house was our own, we freely associated with each other, and basically our affairs were none their business. Now, it seems they can “ban” them. I suppose if they provided housing or something, they would have leverage, but how they can legally keep people from getting together under the banner of a few Greek letters is beyond me.

They once tried the same thing at Faber College.

They’re saying that single gender groups are bad and should be banned, but that there should be an exemption for women’s single gender groups, making the ban only on men’s single gender groups.
