A national fraternity has suspended its activities at Old Dominion University in Norfolk, Virginia amid uproar over sexually suggestive signs posted as parents dropped off their recent high school graduates.
A private home across the street from the university's campus hung banners that read "Freshman daughter drop-off," with an arrow pointing to the front door, "Hope your baby girl is ready for a good time ..." and "Go ahead and drop off Mom too."
Several members of the fraternity Sigma Nu live in the house.
The banners generated outrage on social media and condemnation from university officials and student leaders.
In a statement, Sigma Nu's national organization said any fraternity members found responsible will be held accountable.
Sigma Nu says it condemns what it calls derogatory and demeaning language that was used on the banners.

A lot of the moms may take them up. What’s wrong with an ad?
Yeah they should totally beat up these guys for being straight. /s
People wonder where these current feminist come from? Mainly from stupid conservative fathers that white-knight for their airhead daughters that are apparently too stupid to roll their eyes and just ignore these guys.
Good grief!
ODU is not exactly the epitome of academia but what are "SJWA"s?
Years ago, when my friend dropped his daughter off at college (Wesleyan) he said someone had written on the main walk way “Queer in 4 years or your money back.”
He asked his daughter, are you sure you want to go here?
It was a cute joke and not at all in bad taste. Sheesh. Political correctness has taken all the fun out of life. I feel so sorry for the world today’s children will have growing up.
I’m happy I experienced the ‘70s. A ton of fun.

Couldn’t agree more.
Thank you.
Well you know what, I’m straight, and I have never felt the need to express my disrespect for women and mothers in public like that.
They are good for more than one thing ya know.
The first sign is out of place. It’s creepy. The 2nd and 3rd sign are just too clever to think anything but funny.
I bet 47% of the mothers who saw that smiled, at least inside. I’ve got no clue where 47% came from. It just sounds right.
Molesting?
These aren’t children. If they find there way over there, then they weren’t tricked.....unless they are stupid or are looting for something.
Sophomoric humor refers to juvenile, puerile, and base comedy that would normally be expected from an adolescent. It is used to refer to a type of comedy that often includes bathroom humor and gags that are based on and appeal to a silly sense of immaturity.
The absurd thing is that these guys totally act like the daughter has the intelligence of a chipmunk and have no desire for the opposite sex. Or that they view guys at some higher level beyond the physical.
This is pretty sick.
But you can’t hold a whole fraternity responsible for the behavior of a few, sick twisted individuals. For if you do, then shouldn’t we blame the whole fraternity system? And if the whole fraternity system is guilty, then isn’t this an indictment of our educational institutions in general?
I think it’s funny too. In the late 60’s my ex-wife was dropped off at OSU, and there were “We have come for your daughters” signs to welcome them and their parents.
Good Lord. Suspended over that?
Well played sir.
