CSU has received reports of a situation where a fraternity allegedly displayed a racially insensitive banner. CSU takes this incident very seriously.

The university reviews all reported incidents and is currently working to gather facts and fully understand what happened.

Regardless of how this situation occurred, it has resulted in real harm and pain to our students, staff and community. Students and members of the CSU community affected can seek support.

While the facts are not yet clear, this is an opportunity for us to reiterate our values. Racism in any form is unacceptable, abhorrent and inconsistent with CSU’s Principles of Community.

All of us share the responsibility across our community to build a place where everyone feels honored and safe. To do this, we must live our values.

Rams take care of Rams.
