I don't know why school sanctioning has anything to do with it.

I don't think this would be a tasteful theme even if this school didn't recognize its Panhellenic system. But IMHO, it's more troubling when the university is sponsoring and endorsing this particular set of messages to its freshman women. This isn't just students acting on their own, like an anime club that wants to watch misogynistic movies (which they are welcome to do at a public university). The university has a Greek Life office with staff devoted to the promotion and support of this club. That adds a layer of official authority to the actions of Panhellenic. It makes it just a little harder for freshmen to resist the message that being a young college woman is all about being sexy in your underwear.

we have to realize that some of us are out of touch with what will work with today's college woman.

That's absolutely true, and this theme may well work at bringing more women into the system. But so might free beer and hot guys at the rush parties. The sororities have adopted a very controlled recruitment system in part to ensure that women join for the right reasons and the recruitment process reflects the values of the organizations (which includes alumnae as well as actives).
Anyway. Hobbling away for the Early Bird special...
