Isnt that rather the point to be made? Kappa Sigma is not being allowed the same rights as other similarly treated organizations? Until very recently, they were even denied access to the applications necessary to become an RSO.

What makes that interesting; is the school then turns around when asked and claims Kappa Sigma never applied... only interesting, when they weren't allowed to apply.

Put aside where they can or cannot be for meetings... what are your thoughts on equal access to even attempt to apply for any recognition (either by school or IFC)

See my earlier comment.

Judging solely from the not-always-consistent description I have seen here, I don't think I see a real equal protection argument.
