Important Housing Information for Parents of New Pledges!
Like most CU fraternities, Sigma Nu requires that all “initiated” pledges live on property for 2 years beginning the following school year. Fall pledges and parents sign leases in mid-January to reserve rooms for the following school year. Only those pledges who formally initiate/become members of Sigma Nu will be bound to the lease agreement. Conversely, if a candidate does not initiate, the lease will be terminated.
