After the Cornell Case, Should Colleges Ban Fraternities?

Article here. Excerpt:

'TIME spoke to Nick Syrett, author of The Company He Keeps: A History of White College Fraternities and chair and professor of gender and women’s studies at the University of Wisconsin-Madison, about the case, what makes fraternities different, and why they have proved so hard to rein in.
...
There's a long history of events like this happening in fraternities. Since at least the 1970s and 1980s, there have been incidents of gang rape of intoxicated, incapacitated women in fraternity houses. So it is not surprising that it has happened once again.
...

I think that's right. I don't think sexual assault would go away, but I think that fraternities are organizations that exacerbate and encourage both sexual assault and binge drinking and hazing. I also think, importantly, we would see less organized versions of sexual assault and binge drinking, especially, fewer occasions when a group of men together planned out a sexual assault, which in some sense is what happened at Cornell. I think we would see less of it because there would be less pressure placed upon the men in these organizations to carry out these sorts of things. And granted, it's pressure from within, but it's generally pressure from older brothers upon younger ones.'
