That's generally the case at all schools, whether public or private,
if the organization wants school recognition. Title IX, as implemented and enforced by the Department of Education, basically forbids any school that receives federal funds from granting official recognition to single-sex organizations. There is a specific exemption for social fraternities and sororities.
Besides, if they want a fraternity, they should be able to start a fraternity.
That said, Keeping Under Christ doesn't make much sense to me either -- not that it needs to and not that my opinion matters or should matter. I mean, I understand what it means (I think), but it just seems like an odd phrase. I figured it's just one of those phrases that would be familiar to people in some but not all traditions of Christianity.
More power to them!
