My point on all of this is that once paying students are 18 years of age, isnt it their right as citizens to associate freely wioth whom they choose.

My opinion is that all enforced deferred rush is discrimination at some level, plain and simple

Take a look at today's articles about Pi Kappa Phi and the BB guns at Berkeley. An administrator is quoted as saying they didn't want to permanently expel the chapter, because it might result in an unregulated off-campus fraternity.

Berkeley gave a one-year suspension so the ex-Pi Kappa Phis won't just go "off campus".

Fraternity members played no part in Friday's private party at Acqua Pazza, an Italian restaurant located at 1801 13th St., that ended up being broken up by Boulder police due to underage drinking.

“Some of the guys involved in the planning of it were former members of Phi (Kappa) Tau and former members of Phi Gamma Delta,” said Ryan Lynch, president of the Interfraternity Council (IFC) at CU-Boulder.

BOULDER — Delta Lambda Phi’s rush week began with coffee Monday night and ended with a home-cooked lasagna dinner in the fraternity president’s living room on Friday.

In between, pledges of the University of Colorado’s only gay fraternity joined for a movie night, a bowling trip and an outing to a gay dance club in Denver.

CU’s chapter of Delta Lambda Phi received its charter last year and has about 15 members in the fraternity that advertises itself as being for “gay, bisexual and progressive men.” Seven men participated in this semester’s recruitment week, which marked the fraternity’s third formal rush.
