- None of our University-supported/recognized student groups
- are allowed to be discriminatory, however. You lose recongnition when you
- start refusing membership.
- The African-American Society still has to let people of other
- races join if they so desire, as long as their intentions are honorable,
- etc. (Obviously the University doesn't force groups to put up with
- determined troublemakers. :)) As long as any group *refuses* to let
- certain people join, then it's not a *student* group anymore. It's an
- exclusive club and (IMHO) should 'exclusively' pay for itself.

- But can they avail themselves of those computers if they so
- choose? Why, yes, they can! They simply chose not to and that was their
- choice. Not the University's, not the Computer Club's. *Theirs*. That
- is a lot different than being told you aren't allowed to join a club,
- and yet *your* money is supporting it!
