Elon University’s Kappa Sigma chapter will officially return to Elon’s Interfraternity Council six years after being removed from campus.
The Kappa Sigma chapter was removed from Elon’s IFC in 2019 after the chapter was found responsible for multiple Honor Code violations, including incidents of disorderly conduct, unauthorized use of alcohol, compromising the well-being and academics of new members, and destruction and defacement of property.
In a statement to Elon News Network from Kappa Sigma national, Senior Vice-President and Chief Recruitment Officer Leo J. Brown IV wrote that the fraternity is collaborating with local alumni and Elon’s Student Involvement office to “ensure a strong and successful return.”
“The Kappa Sigma Fraternity is excited to announce the reorganization of the Lambda-Lambda Chapter at Elon University during this academic year,” Brown wrote. “We look forward to meeting Elon students interested in becoming re-founding fathers of this historic chapter.”
Aniya Jerkins, assistant director of Student Involvement, declined an interview but sent a statement to Elon News Network.
“The Office of Student Involvement is currently working with representatives from Kappa Sigma’s national office to create a road map for the return of the chapter to Elon’s campus,” Jerkins wrote. “The plan will reduce off campus activities falsely associated with Kappa Sigma and create space for national representatives to visit the campus and share more about the organization.”
Jerkins wrote that representatives from Kappa Sigma will host an information table in Moseley during September, giving students a chance to learn more about the fraternity.
Senior Zach Honig, president of Elon’s IFC, declined Elon News Network’s request for comment.
Elon News Network reached out to several Kappa Sigma Lambda-Lambda chapter alumni but did not receive comments.
