Hi Kevin and LaneSig and other GCers:

Sigma Phi Epsilon has closed its U of South Carolina chapter. It may recolonize in 2015. See

Excerpt from ^^:

“Sigma Phi Epsilon national fraternity has closed its USC chapter until 2015.
University officials cited rush violations among other reasons for the shutdown, but referred other questions to the national fraternity, which promised to release a statement to The Daily Gamecock, but had not done so as of Tuesday afternoon.

The chapter intends to recolonize at the university in 2015, according to Dennis Pruitt, USC’s vice president for student affairs. Until then, Sigma Phi Epsilon will continue to own the Greek Village house where members currently reside, but will temporarily lease the building, likely to another fraternity. The house will sit vacant for the Spring 2012 semester. . . .”

Basically, the house was a shit hole and the chapter didn't hold up their end of their renovation promises.
