  4. The Chapter is required to set up two workshops during the Fall 2015 semester in conjunction with the Office of Student Conduct and your Assistant Director from the Office of Fraternity and Sorority Affairs. These workshops/conversations should focus on individual and group accountability and how individual actions reflect on the entire organization. One workshop should be for the executive board and one for the whole chapter. Both must be completed by September 30, 2015. For further information please contact Allison Gulati.
  5. You are required to write a letter of apology to Bear Creek Resort. This letter must be typed and no less than 250 words in length. The letter must be submitted to the Office of Student Conduct & Community Expectations, via lehigh.edu/go/sanctionsubmission no later than the close of business June 5, 2015. This letter should reflect a keen understanding of the inappropriateness of your actions and the impact that it had on the recipient. Please be advised that this letter will be screened by the Office of Student Conduct & Community Expectations prior to being forwarded to the recipient. A copy will also be maintained in your disciplinary records. Be further advised that this letter may not serve to justify your own actions nor evaluate the actions of others. The letter should utilize appropriate language, grammar, and spelling. Although, not part of the University Conduct process, we agreed that the chapter should work with their alumni advisor to resolve the dispute regarding the damage with Bear Creek.
