If they don't conside the "booze/sex/drugs,etc." to be a problem, then that's why there is a problem.

"(The school) is willing to sponsor a prom but not an orgy."

That pretty much sums it up.

The brass at the school probably does have a problem with it. But since there is probably a long tradition of that (one that even many of the parents can relate to), they opted to focus their attack on the excesses that surround the event.

That's wise, and probably less controversial. Everybody is still free to have a 'booze cruise' or rent a Hamptons house for $10k of course, but the church/school's 'branding' of the event - and it's satellites - is now gone.

Because it's not FAAIIIR to the poor kids at school that cannot afford to go.
