Tau Kappa Epsilon has been suspended from being recognized by CSULB since 2005 due to several violations between 2000 and 2004.

The last straw took place in 2005 when high-ranking TKE members were upset that they were prohibited from joining a sorority on a bus ride. They proceeded "to pull up flowers and defecate on the front door step" of this particular sorority's home later in the night.

In 2010, TKE will finish their suspension and have the opportunity to possibly be reinstated at CSULB.

Interfraternity Council enforces the Executive Resolution , which states that "sororities voluntarily or knowingly involves itself or its affiliates with the participation of Tau Kappa Epsilon" will not be allowed to participate in social events for an entire semester.

TKE is still not currently recognized by campus, and any sorority that affiliates with the fraternity over extended periods of time "will result in one year disaffiliation from any and all activities with the Interfraternity Council."

Tau Kappa Epsilon has over 260 chapters in the U.S. and Canada, making it the world's largest fraternity. However, there is one less chapter recognized by CSULB.
