Also we were forced to remove facebook pictures that favored this fraternity. Honestly to me this whole situation is more about the principle of the matter as I feel they cannot legally tell us what to wear/say/display and it over steps their authority. Any thoughts? or please correct me if there is some reason this is legal.
You should use the grievance procedures available to you through your organization and through your school if you feel strongly enough about it.

Even if the first amendment itself doesn't apply here, if it feels wrong, it is worth looking in to.
