The University of Utah’s Greek Row will include Kappa Sigma once more. The fraternity, which was terminated in the fall of 2022, is making a return.
Their termination came after a series of investigations involving the fraternity chapter over the past three years. But their return comes with a vote of confidence from both university and Greek life officials, though Kappa Sigma will remain under probation until January, according to the Office of Student Affairs.
The first investigation involving Kappa Sigma was in response to a sexual assault allegation reported in January 2022 regarding a September 2021 “wine Wednesday” event at the chapter’s house, located at 41 S. University St. A female student attended the event with friends and told authorities that she was assaulted on a dance floor at about 1 a.m. on Sept. 23.
The alleged assault was one of two reports made within about a week involving a fraternity, though the second did not involve Kappa Sigma. Together, the reports led to a complete but brief suspension of all Greek life on campus.
