Forgive me just jumping in here folk, but I was google'in around for this story and this little forum came up.

there is a blast from the past…

anyways,

While I had no love for the "Zoo on Laurel" and I know they probably should have shut down, I am sad to see that old house go. Shame, I feel for a lot of their alumni, not all them, just a lot. Looks like their house cleaning(s) missed a few spots…

CSU is shedding houses and chapters faster then I can keep track of, which is really sad. CSU has become a less and less Greek friendly campus in my memory since about the time…. Well since LXA got the axe… in the last 15ish years a lot of “old houses” have gotten the axe (one way or another), or come very close. In no real order: Sigma Nu, Lambda Chi Alpha, Beta (they are back but not really anything people would call a house as of yet), SigEp almost got the axe but lost a lot of manpower, Pi Kappa Phi almost. KKG almost, AXO+Pike (The homecoming float incident, Pike Came back from that suspension, only now to be re-unrecognized by the school for their latest stunts, but their nationals keeps them on the books)...Theta, Zeta, SimgaChi (comes closer every day....) DTD (close), PhiDelt (close a few times), PhiTau …. I am sure I missing a one or two…


I just hope that there are still schools with strong and decent greek systems when I have kids ready to go to college… I guess I better start saving for that out of state tuition.

Here is the end result:
Alcohol incident leads to closing of CSU frat house

You did miss a few, and updating the status of each house is harrowing....ATO closed mid 1990's, Sigma Chi took over their house (which is now an emptly, bulldozed lot)...Sigma Nu closed 1998 - house razed, now a snazzy townhome lot....Alpha Phi - closed 1993? - now a fraternity house....AXO closed due to the parade stunt, now a Christian-themed dorm house....LXA closed 2000 - that house, still owned by LXA, became "home" for Sigma Pi until Samantha Spady died, and it is also now a christian dorm...Phi Tau was back, but apparently didn't last long. Theta house now a CSU owned dorm....SAE house is now sadly all boarded up.

When did Zeta close? Letters were still on the house two weeks ago....

Ah, Boulder a ship with no Captain at the Helm?:(
Oh UCo?:o

Story update:
CSU frat gets another chance

Hi all, I am the Eminent Preceptor for the CSU chapter of SAE. I would like to let everyone know that we are back on campus, and are ready to have a great rush in the fall. I am originally from the University of New Mexico, but transferred here last fall.

We have definitely gone through quite a few hoops, and there are a few more to go through; but we feel as though we are now ready to have a fresh start at CSU.

As far as our house goes, the alumni have decided to sell it to a corporation and have it bulldozed in order to build a new "lodge" in which we will be able to have some of the rooms. The rest will be rented out to other students and the first floor will probably be a Starbucks, or something to that effect.

Whether or not the alumni have sold us out, we as a chapter have no choice and we will take the cards we have been given and will do our best to restore our reputation here at CSU.
