2020/2021 New Chapters/Expansions/Charters/Closures

[Benzgirl]

Here is the most recent update for The Ohio State University (as of this week)...

No longer recognized by the University:
Tau Kappa Epsilon, Phi Kappa Psi, Alpha Epsilon Pi, Sigma Alpha Mu, Zeta Beta Tau, Theta Tau, Sigma Pi, Phi Delta Theta, Kappa Sigma and Chi Phi

Deferred Revocation of Registration*
Pi Beta Phi and Beta Theta Pi

Social Restrictions (new term for Social Probation):
3 sororities and 1 fraternity. This status limits the number of events a chapter can hold but does not prohibit all events

Chapters formerly on social restrictions but still on a Disciplinary Probation:
1 sorority and one fraternity

Chapters where all charges have been removed:
One Fraternity

*Defererred Revocation of Registration - This sanction means the charge could have been grounds for removal, however enough mitigating factors were in place (the chapter has shown a willingness to work with the university and their headquarters to better their members and ensure situations like this do not happen again). If the chapter were to have another incident that would show a failure to comply with their sanction, the University could remove the chapter from being a recognized organization.

The needle keeps moving!

Alpha Tau Omega has been moved added to Deferred Revocation of Registration (Pi Phi and Beta continue at that status). No other changes this week.

Any idea what that means?

Yes, I had posted it a few pages back. It's basically, "this is your last chance".

Because there were so many groups breaking University rules but of different levels of egregiousness, the University came up with something between "Social Restrictions" (new name for Social Probation and the restrictions vary from case to case) and "No Longer Recognized" (kicked off campus)
