If the grades for that additional semester do not qualify for initiation, the pledgeship shall be terminated. Upon a showing of good cause, the office of Student Affairs may authorize the pledgeship to be extended for a third semester.

III. Membership Lists. Each fraternity must keep at all times in the Office of Student Affairs a current file of its members, pledges, and officers.

1 The Office of Student Affairs has defined one full semester of work to be a minimum of 12 semester hours or its equivalent in the professional colleges for which grades A, B, C, D, or F have been received. No deviations from this minimum will be made.
