In March, when hazing allegations were first raised against five fraternities, the IFC and University directed all houses to immediately initiate their pledges. The 29 Theta Chi pledges from the Class of 2024 thus became active brothers in March 2024. All the undergraduate brothers automatically became alumni when National revoked our charter (except for the 10 officers who are no longer Theta Chi brothers).
I am sure sympathy is in short supply for the undergraduate brothers. Their behavior during the investigation process is troubling. Note that the officers have paid a heavy penalty, and those accused of other offenses have been referred to either the University Judicial Committee or to the Honor Committee. We presume these institutions will mete out the appropriate penalties. The 2024 pledges, plus the second-, third-, and fourth-year brothers (now alumni) now become part of the larger Xi Chapter Alumni. Some may drift away over time, but some have already developed close ties to their classmates. As they say, time heals all wounds and eventually we will come to a period of acceptance and move forward.
