"We patrolled all of the residence halls throughout the break and the officers did not see anything suspicious happening in those units," Stafford said.

"We are actively investigating these thefts and are leaving no stone un-turned in our attempt to develop leads in these cases. We believe someone living there may have seen something that they didn't realize was suspicious at the time that they saw it," Stafford wrote in an e-mail last week.

Though thefts on campus have occurred over the winter break period in previous years, none have taken place at Townhouse Row, according to UPD reportings dating back to January 2004.

The four chapter presidents all expressed similar concerns on behalf of their members.

"We are extremely disappointed that this happened," O'Neill said. "Our house is a very special place where all members should feel welcome."

Kristen Konopka, a sophomore and president of Kappa Kappa Gamma, said she is also eager to learn more about the reported break-in.

"We feel very nervous and disconcerted about the fact that someone had, and still has, access into our home," she said.

Junior Rob Grant, president of Sigma Phi Epsilon, said he is calling on the University to reimburse students who had property stolen.
