It is now UM Science and Technology, it has been re-branded.
The Fraternity I was in did hazing and had us pledges do under age drinking and smoke cigars and other stuff. It made Rolla a party university and it made me sick and my money was running out so I quit and moved back to St. Louis for a community college were tuition was cheaper.
A Fraternity is male only for a reason, a lot of the men are rough and cuss a lot, and you have to be tough to survive the hazing and other trials they put you under. I won't reveal their secret rituals or betray them in any way. Just that it is not designed for females nor are sororities designed for males. Trying to change that will change the experience one gets from a fraternity or sorority. People act differently around the opposite gender than they do in a group of people all the same gender.
Think about how all this would sound if you were talking about race instead of gender and see if you'd still agree. If you don't still agree, try to figure out why.
We find it gross to say things like "Whites and blacks have different interests and enjoy different kinds of things, so there's nothing wrong about separating them into different social institutions". I think it's still gross if you replace 'whites and blacks' with 'men and women'.
The argument you gave is comparing apples to oranges.
Can a white person join an African-American only campus group? Can a male join the Women in STEM group?
So why is there a Boy Scouts and Girl Scouts?
Why is there a male sports team and female sports team?
I'm not saying segregation is the right thing, but I've had SJWs tell me what white males intimidate other people, so they want to have an all female computer class or all black computer class. So it isn't my idea to separate the students.
I say that having a diverse class is the better way to go. But I've been told I am wrong on that.
There are lots of scholarships and grants for females and minorities to attend colleges and universities. So computer science should not be mostly male and mostly white.
Would a black fraternity allow white men to join?
Would a sorority allow a man to join? Sleep in the same sleeping area as females do?
Can a man join women in STEM group and get free scholarships and grants meant for women?
Those are the questions you have to ask yourself. You seem to think in black and white thinking when the world is shades of gray and in colors.
Boy Scouts and Girl Scouts are allowed to exist. But I, myself, think their gender segregation is gross.
There are male and female sports teams for the same reason heavyweight and lightweight boxers compete separately: we recognize that there's a meaningful difference in type of bodies and so we segment them into different groups for competition. But not that the reason for separation, here, is not gender; it's types of bodies.
