He was probably referring to the hippie/ drug/ anti-war movement.

Like I said, those things don't necessarily mean that people weren't in fraternities.

No argument -- the point was only as to why the comment "You call it a meltdown, we call it the civil rights movement" didn't fit. He wasn't talking about the Civil Rights movement.

well, I think that had something to do with it, when big chapters at big Northern private schools are turning in their charters over white clauses.

No one's arguing with the effects, pro or con, of the civil rights movement on Greek life. We're just saying that when oldu referred to "the meltdown of the late 1960s," we don't think he wasn't talking about the civil rights movement. Therefore, your statement "You call it a meltdown, we call it the civil rights movement" didn't really fit.
