UTEP chronology:
Spring 1997 - Lambda Chi Alpha risk manager threatened by members of Kappa Sigma. Kappa Sigs warn "you're gonna get hurt" to risk manager. Warning fueled by fact that Lambda Chi risk manager had dated young woman who had previous relationship with Kappa Sigma member (who didn't care and wasn't present at confrontation).
Fall 1997 - Kappa Sigma charter revoked due to enormous debt to national office. Allegations of drug use at chapter house also cited. Two of three members of Kappa Sigma who made threats forced to leave school due to low GPA.
Spring 1998 - SAE sends threatening e-mail to Lambda Chi Alpha vice-president. Letter states "Maybe someday you'll be #1 and know what it's like... yeah right". Later that semester SAE members show up in large group at local establishment in order to start large-scale fight with Lambda Chi members.
Fall 1998 - SAE charter revoked after 2 members arrested for rape in the state of New Mexico. Alleged rape took place at party on UNM campus. Many members transfer out of school or simply drop out.
Fall 1998 - TKE (boasting largest membership on campus) begins seeking physical fights with any other organization. Many TKEs hurl verbal insults at others during Spring 1999 Greek Week events and encourage physical confrontation. TKE members target Lambda Chi. One TKE threatens Lambda Chi member at football game.
Spring 1999 - TKE removed from campus after physically beating member of own fraternity. TKE membership very low due to blanket rush that initiated many who dropped out next semester. Large debt also cited. Chapter was on campus less than 2 years.
Spring 1999 - Drunken Chi Omega member hurls verbal insults at Lambda Chi brothers -- "Don't forget who MADE you!" also heard by many witnesses.
Fall 1999 - Chi Omega removed from campus by alumni. Membership was at lowest point in years. House donated to university.
Spring 2001 - Sigma Phi Epsilon has angry grudge against Lambda Chi due to use of a homemade cart for annual Greek Week "Bed Race". Cart was formerly owned by SigEp, but left at former member's house for over a year. Cart given by member to Lambda Chi. SigEp pledge verbally curses at Lambda Chi brothers, but only to his own brothers... not realizing that person within earshot is Lambda Chi alumnus visiting to support his chapter. Alumnus asks pledge what problem is; SigEp pledge still mumbles but continues to walk backward to stand behind SigEp actives. Alumnus threatened by another SigEp pledge with crew cut("I think you'd better leave, sir"), alumnus responds with reasonable solution ("**** off, G.I. Joe"). Cart ownership goes to appeal and is given back to Lambda Chi Alpha.
Date unknown (circa 2003) - Sigma Phi Epsilon removed from campus. Chapter had short run as actual charter and is completely forgotten.
BOTTOM LINE: DON'T MESS WITH LAMBDA CHI
