So, the USFS allows college students to camp, knowing full well they will trash the place?
Sounds like someone should be fired.
Not every group of college students will trash the place. Not every trashing of the place is done by college students.
I go to Lake Shasta every year and I think the USFS does a great job. I'm not going to blame them for the actions of a few jerks - and I'm not going to blame every college student for the actions of a few jerks. IF the fraternity IS responsible (so far, it's just been confirmed that a single cooler had the frat insignia on it - not that it was a frat party), then banning that fraternity from camping at Lake Shasta is legitimate. But banning all college students because of a few is excessive.
