sugar and spice, you're most likely right in saying that Tri Delta's national office may get involved. The U. of Colorado student paper reports that UC Greek Affairs has contacted Tri Delta HQ (excerpt below):

Greek life examined

The university has contacted the national chapter of the Delta Delta Delta, the sorority house of two CU-Boulder freshmen who were ticketed for harassment Nov. 8 after condoms and toilet paper were found on the dorm room door of a CU-Boulder freshman.

The university is looking into potential Judicial Affairs adjudication in the matter, CU officials said Monday.

"The university's judicial system does not take action against groups," said Bob Maust, chair of CU's standing committee against alcohol abuse, "so it will be the individuals if Judicial Affairs gets involved, whether that's the individual leadership in providing alcohol or whether it will be the individuals who may be responsible for harassment of a non-member."

Freshmen Delta Delta Delta sorority pledges Kristin Ann Russell and Staci Ann Dratler were charged with harassment Nov. 8 for taping condoms and toilet paper to fellow freshman Lili Armstrong's door. Armstrong was a pledge in the sorority prior to the alleged occurrence, but told police she dropped out of the sorority because she felt uncomfortable with alcohol provided at a sorority sleepover in October.

CUPD spokesman Tim McGraw said the investigation is now closed from a police perspective, but added the department is giving a copy of the report to Judicial Affairs.


"It's closed as so far as what we can deal with here is concerned," he said.

Maust said Laura Strohminger, Greek affairs director, contacted the national Delta Delta Delta chapter before going out of town last week. The Colorado Daily was not able to reach the national chapter in Texas Monday.
