Fraternity and Sorority Life and the Office of Student Conduct should work as allies. However, a lack of cooperation and distance often replace the respect and shared responsibility that should be the cornerstone of their collaboration. In this session, the presenters will explore the barriers to effective collaboration and discuss how aligning a vision for accountability can transform how these offices work together to educate and support students. They will share practical processes, experiences, and solutions, offering a road map for implementing change on campus.
