RISK MANAGEMENT VIOLATIONS...
   What's Going On This Year?

        This year has been way too busy with risk management policy violations.

        A total of 7 violations have been reported so far and spring term is just

        beginning.  Violations have ranged from incidents involving alcohol to

        hazing to fighting.

        Let’s take a moment at your next meeting to remind your brothers of

        Theta Xi’s Risk Management Policy.  Also, encourage social chairman,

        membership educators and executive committee officers to keep policy

        guidelines in mind as they plan and review upcoming chapter programs,

        events and activities.
