After WWII, no prestigous institution of higher learning banned a greek system until Williams College in 1968. Then there was a pause until the 1980s. Then its started; Amherst, Bowdoin, Colby, Franklin & Marshall, and others either banned their greek systems, or forced them to go co-ed or banned them outright.
The greek system at F&M never went away. The administration at F&M decided to act responsibly, and negotiate the rerecognition of their greek system with alumni and the faculty. Technically, this has not happened yet, but its as good as done.
