They did have approval when they initially came onto the campus. Princeton changed its policy because they are being "politically correct" which is a synonym for jackasses.

In response to another post, yeah it is a small amount of $$ compared with what you pay in tuition there - it's the principle of the thing. Like I said, if it was working, the fraternities and sororities would have died out - instead, we keep hearing about the pledge classes getting bigger and bigger. If the administration were NFL coaches they'd have been fired long ago.

My question is, if the eating clubs are so the be all and end all, why did the Greeks come onto campus in the first place? Or is it like an article I remember reading about Yale - to summarize, the old money, "white shoe" students joined the clubs that had been around forever and the new money/foreign students joined sororities.
