A moratorium is a temporary prohibition of an activity. The moratorium periods used by Fraternity and Sorority Life are implemented during time in the academic term/year when student members’ primary focus should be their academics, in between terms, throughout the summer terms, during University closures, etc. Moratorium dates will be listed on the OFSL calendar.
There are three levels of moratorium:
Level 1: Chapters cannot host/co-host any events during Level I moratorium.
Level 2: Chapters can only host/co-host educational/academic and/or service events that do not involve alcohol during Level 2 moratorium. Other “dry” events that don’t not fall into the above categories would need to get written approval from OFSL.
Level 3: Chapters can only host/co-host events that do not involve alcohol during Level 3 moratorium.
