Colorado State greeks have gotten the year off to a rousing start.
Eight fraternities and sororities at Colorado State University were disciplined today due to alcohol rules violations in Greek houses.
School officials said they learned of a series of parties that occurred on Sept. 1. At these parties, they said, alcohol was provided and consumed by fraternity and sorority members within several fraternity houses in violation of both chapter and university rules and regulations.

The majority of the Greek chapters were not involved in this situation, officials said.
According to the school, the following disciplinary actions have been taken:
[...]
-- Social probation for the Sigma Phi Epsilon fraternity, Kappa Kappa Gamma sorority, Pi Beta Phi sorority and the Gamma Phi Beta sorority. These chapters and their members are suspended from engaging in any Greek-related social activities or functions (including the Formal) which include the use, presence or pre-consumption of alcohol, for a period of one academic year. Chapters must apply for the termination of the social probation status.
Also, recognition as a student organization was withdrawn from Pi Kappa Alpha. Placed on suspension were Pi Kappa Phi, Chi Omega, and Tri Delta.
Let's hope the party was worth it!
