So it sounds like your issue is not with FGCU, but with IFC, an entity that does not want you at this time.
Not necessarily; the school does need all groups to be registered, provide a copy of bylaws, and list of all members for liability purposes; but that's just about it. The governing body is a seperate matter.

The fight is with FGCU, not the IFC. A group of students, does not have the right to ban a lawful group of students to form an organization. They can prevent that group from being members of their own organization (IFC can vote no to IFC recognition; but they cannot vote to have them not form at all). However, the school itself, by equal protection laws is still bound to let every organization apply to become a registered student organization.
