I posted the following disclaimer on another thread. It was listed Chico State's
Social Fraternities page. Near the bottom.

Note: Chi Tau (XT) was expelled from the University in spring 2002 for alcohol violations. Although the fraternity continues to operate, it is not recognized by the University, the Interfraternity Council or it's former national fraternity Delta Sigma Phi.

To piggyback on what others have posted, this
"chapter" is not affiliated with either an inter/national organization nor with Chico State. It's a bunch of guys who formed a group and call themselves by a name that happens to use Greek letters. Frankly, if the whole fraternity system was to be closed, then what's to keep other groups of men - or women - from forming associations that are not recognized by the university?
Banning fraternities - and perhaps down the line sororities - is not the solution.
It seems that the campus culture may need to change. (Maybe even the local community.) Part of that change needs to include enforceable rules of conduct. Not just for GLOs but for all organizations and all students. Perhaps under the Student Code of Conduct or what ever CSU might call it. If an organization or student breaks the rules, then the organization and or the student is suspended or expelled as appropriate. Continue to do this until the 'old school' students are gone.
