The direct or indirect sale of alcoholic beverages by any chapter of Kappa Sigma Fraternity is strictly forbidden.

The use or possession of any unlawful drug in any form is not permitted at any Kappa Sigma function or at any Kappa Sigma chapter house.
Parties and social activities should be open to members and invited guests only. Open parties, meaning those with unrestricted access by non-members of the Fraternity, without specific invitation, are prohibited by Kappa Sigma Fraternity.

Alcoholic beverages are prohibited at any pledge program or initiation ceremony of the chapter.

Kappa Sigma Fraternity views violation of this policy as an extremely grave matter and shall respond to any such violation with expulsion, depledging, suspension or fines, depending upon the circumstances. The day-to-day responsibility of the enforcement of this policy rests with the members and chapters. Kappa Sigma calls on each individual member to abide by and to enforce this policy for the good of the Order.
