Yes and yes. The fraternity is obviously free to hold the event as an expression of their free speech...buuuuut perhaps this was not the appropriate time/venue (stopping in front of the AKA event during an anniversary celebration) for that expression. I personally find it distasteful in general, but the 1st amendment provides it protection. If the campus was to ban them from parading, that is their privilege as an institution. I think that next time they should use a little more tact and forethought, and they owe the ladies of AKA and the campus a huge apology.
