Banned for blackballing[edit]

The article about Delta Kappa Epsilon says "In 1989, Colgate University banned all DKE activities after the officials found members guilty of hazing, blackballing and other violations of university regulations" - since blackballing is described as a voting system, how can that be reason for banning a group? 80.145.24.15 (talk) 19:51, 11 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]

I would imagine it refers to members vexatiously blackballing prospective pledges who have already been pre-selected by committee as suitable. Nuttyskin (talk) 23:17, 1 November 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Black cubes[edit]

Surely, it is so a black ball can be distinguished from a white ball by touch in the darkness of the voter's hand or pocket.
