We have finally received sanctions from the UCLA conduct office for the Winter 2023 initiation week infraction. The sanctions require a suspension of undergraduate activity through April 5, 2025. While disappointing, it is better than the four-year suspension that was also considered. We will use this year to plan and organize our rebuilding efforts, focusing on three main priorities:
1. Communicate with and organize
alumni: Inform and recruit alumni to fill board and advisory team positions.
2. Develop a three-year plan to rebuild: Recruit new members, enhance chapter operations, and improve public/campus relations.
3. Housing: Ensure short-term occupancy and income and plan for the chapter’s return.
We have been in communication with Triangle National since the initial incident. They have been waiting over a year for these sanctions to be finalized so they can begin leading the support plan for UCLA and increase Triangle’s success at our other three area campuses. Triangle plans to restore a closed chapter at Cal Poly-Pomona soon, and our chapters at UCI and UCSD need extra attention. A regional effort will include several informal alumni gatherings in Southern California to identify alumni to support all our regional chapters. We’re also discussing the possibility of a live-in advisor at UCLA for one or two terms to help with recruitment efforts. This formal suspension also suspends our membership in the IFC. We will be required to submit a proposal to the IFC to be recognized once more. Former campus chapters have priority, especially those with housing.
