Kappa Delta Chi has closed their chapter at Clarkson University due to low membership numbers. With Theta Phi closing a year earlier, that only leaves Delta Zeta and Phi Sig on campus.

Ohio State University has revoked recognition of Pi Kappa Phi until 2036. Revocation is due to RMF.

The University of Arizona said it will not recognize Sigma Alpha Mu until June 2031 due to severe hazing incidents.

Looking for something else on the CAL greek website, I saw that the Upsilon chapter of ZTA at UC Berkeley had closed. I went to the national website to verify.

Zeta Tau Alpha closes Upsilon Chapter at University of California, Berkeley

With a heavy heart, Zeta Tau Alpha announces the closure of our Upsilon Chapter at University of California, Berkeley, effective at the end of the current semester.

Zeta Tau Alpha’s commitment to ensuring a positive member experience is at the forefront of every decision we make. ZTA’s national volunteer leadership and staff have devoted extensive support, financial resources, and guidance to the chapter in an effort to increase participation and maintain long-term stability. Despite the efforts of support from the Fraternity, the chapter has shown it is unable to meet these expectations.

The closing of any chapter is extremely difficult and sad for our entire sisterhood. We welcome Upsilon members into alumnae life and look forward to their continued involvement as a reminder that Zeta Is Forever.

Founded in 1915 and reestablished in 2012, Upsilon Chapter will always be a treasured part of our history as the 27th link in our Chain of Chapters.

From my understanding, Kappa Alpha Theta is the only chapter “active” at Colorado College with Delta Gamma and Kappa Kappa Gamma leaving within the last five years. I’m curious to see how their NPC Expansion is going to work on a smaller, private campus.
