Grand Valley State University president calls fraternity, sorority alcohol ban proactive
GRAND RAPIDS, MI - Grand Valley State University President Thomas Haas said the alcohol ban on all fraternity and sorority events imposed Wednesday, Oct. 31 is an educational opportunity.
"If there are behaviors, like with alcohol, that are precipitating negative consequences for our students and their safety, I am going to step in,'' Haas told MLive/The Grand Rapids Press Friday, Nov. 2.
"We try to anticipate problems and be proactive that's our culture here. "Student voices are going to be very important in the task force being created as they have been for my 12.5 years here.''
Haas and the Board of Trustees discussed the ban during the board's Academic and Student Affairs Committee Friday, Nov. 2, prior to the full board meeting at the Eberhard Center on GVSU's Pew Campus in Grand Rapids.
