Sorry to butt into y'all's forum, but that's not quite accurate.

1-He wasn't in any fraternity, the Lambda Chi house just happened to be one of his many stops on that fateful night. It was a coincidence that he just happened to be driving past the Lambda Chi house when he crashed (on a stretch of road where there had been many accidents in the past).
2-It was alcohol/cocaine related, but that couldn't be proven as his father performed the autopsy and sealed the results.
3-The chapter was not meeting the requirements set forth in the campus' "Standards of Excellence" plan that is required of all GLO's on that campus, and I believe they had already been on probation by the university for not meeting the requirements for the previous two years, and they had been on various levels of probation w/ your national office for the previous three.
4-The incident where he died happened the semester before they lost their charter.

It was very, very tragic when that chapter lost their charter. They were one of my favorite chapters there, and all the brothers were just awesome men. It was a huge loss.

I do hope they will be able to return soon!
