Bloomsburg University to begin disaffiliation with certain FSL organizations

Bloomsburg University will begin an immediate disaffiliation with four recognized Fraternity and Sorority Life (FSL) system student organizations that have continued violations of previously announced reforms.

 

The disaffiliation will be effective the beginning of the spring 2021 semester. It will continue for a period no less than five years, through at least the fall semester of 2025, when the disaffiliation may be revisited for effectiveness and overall interest in the University’s desire or opportunity to expand the FSL community.

This action is being taken due to an overall non-compliance to University standards for student and organizational behavior and the defiance of the University’s zero-tolerance policy.

The safety and welfare of our students is our highest priority. Our focus remains on creating a safe, educational environment where all students can succeed and thrive.

This is a critically important and necessary step to improving the culture of Fraternity and Sorority Life at BU. It is our goal to foster a safe and positive fraternal experience and to help preserve the legacy and reputation of these organizations.

    Sincerely, 

        Bashar W. Hanna, President
