I would rather see my fraternity withdraw from campuses which seek to control us to that extent than to cope. This is a massive overreaction to basically a few bad apples and will change nothing about these chapters' behavior. If college fraternities end up only existing at state schools where they can't stop our freedom to associate, so be it. Let schools like Dartmouth trash the sort of alumni loyalty, campus life experience, etc. that only Greek Life can offer. Let's make sure these kids coming on campus live in some administration-controlled bubble where they are only exposed to that which the administration deems appropriate.

I am particularly disappointed that this is happening at Dartmouth. Our chapter at Dartmouth was, back in the 60s, a huge force for change and served a great role within our brotherhood when they chose to dissociate from Sigma Nu after we failed at our Grand Chapter to vote anti-discriminatory language into our governing documents. They only returned when this language was finally accepted at the next convention.

I'd hate to lose that history and that chapter, but I'd rather see that happen than to bow down to some administrative dictators who feel the need to control every aspect of their campus.
