Poorly worded on my part. The point is that private universities can absolutely regulate any student behavior because they are not state run and subject to Constitutional limitations such as being forbidden from punishing speech, allowing students to freely associate, etc. A private university can absolutely wipe out FSL organizations and no one can challenge them. They can punish students for associating with private off campus groups as well.

FSL organizations at public schools can of course lose recognition, but if that chapter wants to operate in an off campus capacity, there is nothing the school can do to stop them. The public university cannot punish students for their off campus associations. FSL organizations at public universities always have a nuclear option at their disposal. They can simply ignore the university knowing that the worst the school can do is withdraw university recognition. If that action is meaningless to the national organization or if the chapter doesn't care what the national organization says (they can always go local), the worst that can happen, again, is loss of recognition.

Loss of recognition from the university may mean loss of the ability to utilize campus facilities in the group's name and/or participation in structured FSL events. There may be some local consequences such as the loss of the ability to use the chapter facility due to potential FSL zoning issues which affect some municipalities.
