The Virginia-based Kappa Alpha Order issued new rules to chapters earlier this year saying members aren't allowed to wear Rebel uniforms to parties or during their parades, which are a staple on campuses across the South.
The decision, announced in an internal memo posted on the group's website, followed a flap last year at the University of Alabama in Tuscaloosa, where a black sorority complained after a KA parade stopped in front of its house on campus. KA members were dressed in the gray uniforms of Confederate officers, and young women wore hoop skirts.
More than 70 alumnae of the sorority, Alpha Kappa Alpha, sent a petition to Alabama President Robert Witt complaining about the use of Confederate flags and uniforms on campus.
So, let me get this straight.
A fraternity inspired by the anti-slavery (though Confederate) Robert E Lee is barred from wearing uniforms to one of their silly rituals because it's "racist" and offends an all-black sorority?
Am I the only person seeing a problem there?

By the way, it's been scientifically proven: comments on Yahoo news articles are better at killing your brain cells than listening to the Jonas Brothers while a giant machine pumps a mixture of PCP and battery acid directly into your brain.
Damn, there are some fucktards among us. Doesn't matter which side of an argument anyone takes (usually one that they made up on the spot), they're all morons.
