Over. Well over. Fraternities graduate people who are very fond of fraternities. Some of those graduates make serious money and send some of that money to their alma mater and might reconsider doing so if the school banned frats.
I am sure people love protection for raping coeds with drugged punch and getting jobs on Wall Street as American Studies majors
I don't know, how long until socially awkward losers who use the made-up concept of being a "nice guy" as a mask for their inability to respect a person's right to reject them and say "no" are banned?
Instead of attacking the institution, we need to look at what thought processes and patterns are engrained since childhood to make people view all human relationships as transactional. Because, frankly, the inability to respect a person's right to say no is the core of rape culture, and this mindset is pervasive among the "nice guy" and redpiller sets.

I don't know if I'm bothered more by frat guys or the fake nice guys. The frat guys are loud and annoying. The fake nice guys make me look bad, so probably them.
The institution of fraternities breeds this idea of masculine superiority
I can virtually guarantee your motives are not altruistic. Your problem is not with the culture of the fraternity itself, your problem is with the fact that a certain segment of masculinity (which is often mirrored within fraternities) has rejected you.
"Oh, but I would never want to join anyway!" If that is your reaction, you are subconsciously supporting my statement. It is easier to claim you didn't want something than to face rejection. In other words, "the problem is them not me," when in actuality the problem is, indeed, you.

I was in a fraternity.
Way to try and debunk a very valid argument with a childish take. This might be a good time to go KYS. (asking on behalf of your family)
That will never happen. False premise.
They should be banned immediately as a symbol of male unity and power. We need to accelerate the feminization of male culture and continue to ensure men feel horrible for not choosing a female potus.
Fraternities are a zero sum game.
Didn't have them at my university. We seemed to get on just fine.
Banned by whom? How do you ban people from forming an organization, buying a house, and letting members live in that house and engage in social events?

You don't know much about socialism.
Great article on Frats and how they work, their history, etc..
If you want to make frats smaller and less influencial you don't ban them, you drop the legal drinking age to 19.
That kills frats.
They are in essence underage drinking clubs. Once people are of legal age they go to clubs and bars like everyone else in the world, only a real loser is at the frat house after age 22.

Well then you are merely seeking attention, and you assume that assuming an SJW position means that nobody can deny you that attention without looking like an ass.
Either way, your argument is not valid - eliminating institutions does not fix problems of human nature. Simple minds advocate simple solutions, like eliminating fraternities or telling me "KYS."

You couldn't ban anyone from doing that but what you're describing isn't a fraternity. It's not uncommon at all for specific fraternities to get banned at particular schools.
