That’s the argument for keeping frats as student groups, that some supervision is better than none. At CU, the frats were ‘thrown’ off campus after a hazing incident ended in the death of a pledge. The houses were never on campus and always privately owned, but when they were student groups there was some oversight. Once they were no longer student groups, it was up to their alums (and insurance companies) to supervise. They’ve existed that way for 15 or 20 years. They don’t care if the university doesn’t recognize them.
