NYerr, you clearly are hearing this from the side of the fraternity. I promise you that they were fully aware that if they had another infraction they were going to be shut down. This is something I know firsthand. If you’re told any infraction, no matter how small, while you’re on probation this time, will result in your being kicked off, you have no one to blame but yourself.

It’s also worth noting that 'no due process" is completely untrue. The infractions are findings by a panel of mostly students, 2 faculty members (usually) and usually 1 staff member. That’s compared to what in their case was about 6 students.

If you want to learn more about the UHAS process, check out the student affairs website or schedule a meeting with Jim Neiumeister (who is a great guy, btw).

And for the record, the majority of houses on campus don’t seem to have any trouble either avoiding sanctions or keeping themselves in line while they’re on probation.
