So I don't understand where "equal access to even attempt to apply for recognition" is coming from. You already had that.

Not exactly. The school claims that Kappa Sigma has not applied; which is why they are not being allowed to use school facilities. However, the truth of the matter is; until the news story aired, the school refused to provide the necessary form to even become an RSO.
Being a student organization, and being a part of IFC (another student organization) are seperate issues.
In fact, no application has been accepted from either the school or the IFC. The vote discussed, was a vote called by the members of Kappa Sigma during the IFC meeting. No actual written application has been granted (prior to the news story).
Post news story, there is a current debate regarding whether or not a fraternity can keep its single gender status. On the RSO form, there is a check box on the form for fraternities/sororities (with no further explaination about gender status - except an email from the Greek Life Coordinator stating they would have to surrender single-sex status). We believe being denied that status, is a violation of Title 9 protetction.
