At Harvard, All-Female Groups Claim Collateral Damage in Crackdown on Final Clubs
After Harvard University announced plans on Friday to bar members of single-gender social clubs from leadership positions and scholarship endorsements from the college, many of Harvard’s women fought back. The policy is an attempt to crack down on Harvard’s historic "final clubs," which are not officially affiliated with the university. The new rule, however, does not single out those groups, taking in the campus’s unaffiliated five fraternities and four sororities as well.
