U of O pulls recognition of fraternity
Wednesday, January 07, 2009 | No comments posted.
EUGENE (AP) — The University of Oregon says it has withdrawn recognition of the Theta Chi fraternity, forcing about 30 members to move out over the weekend.
Greek leadership adviser Amy Long cited excessive breaking of conduct rules, most involving alcohol.
A UO spokeswoman says the fraternity was on an extended probation period.
Theta Chi has a long relationship with the university, and Long says it will try to work with alumni to restore recognition.
