After banning fraternities and other student organizations from tailgating in houses and on the Parade Grounds, LSU administrators announced late Friday that the pre-game partying would be allowed elsewhere on campus.

Frat houses and the Parade Grounds are still off limits, but the Greek organizations can set up tailgates elsewhere on the campus – provided they register with the university, according to a letter LSU lawyers sent to the fraternities.


quote:

The organizations will still have to abide by the rules, such as no commonly shared sources, like beer kegs or bowls of jungle juice, and alcohol can only be consumed by people over the age of 21. The university is working with the social organizations over how the handle Homecoming against Mississippi State University on Oct. 20. Because the event attracts a lot of alumni and donors, LSU officials are working out how the tailgating parties can be held in fraternity and sorority houses.

They are just allowing the Greeks to do what they knew they werent going to be able to enforce. There was no way they could practically enforce a ban on Greek tailgating anywhere on campus, but they can enforce a ban on houses and Parade Grounds.

Liberals and SJWs can smell weakness.

I have here in front of me a device which represents the cutting edge of probabilistic calculation. With a mere query, it will run complex quantum probability simulations solving for all possible outcomes at once that may occur in the vastness of the universe, generating an overall probability for the event being queried. Let's try it out.

Computron 3000, what is the probability that the Student Affairs and Accountability Office will ever approve any location a Greek organization tries to register?

I keep saying this is painfully stupid. Just have a tailgate with no colors or letters and call it a day. There is absolutely nothing the university can say at that point because it’s not a “fraternity” tailgte then
