In Loco Parentis Lives?

What I find most striking about Stanford's warning to students regarding religion is that this may be one of the last remaining areas in which universities feel comfortable acting in loco parentis.  In other areas (sex and substance abuse, in particular), the college student is presumed to be a fully formed, independent actor, needing no boundaries or guidance.  (For some insight, read Mary Ann Glendon's review of Tom Wolfe's I Am Charlotte Simmons or this Christianity Today column.)
