I applaud this challenge by the fraternities.

IMO, the "deferred rush" mandate is not addressing the problem of underage drinking, and yes, I believe they are right in the freedom of association aspect.

The only way to combat the problem of underage drinking is some drastic "in your face" education of underage college students. Teens/young adults still live in a world of "it can't happen to me" mentality...the tragic events at several campuses in Colorado prove this point.

Though I don't really favor it, I also see the possible changes of national fraternities to go dry (FarmHouse...for a long time, Sigma Nu, Phi Delt, and others) will have an effect, but still won't fix the overall problem.
