Andaverde suffered several fractures and was sent to Harborview Medical Center in Seattle. Moscow police say alcohol is believed to have been involved. The fall is the second since classes started on the Moscow campus in northern Idaho last month. “I have been at the univer- sity quite a while: It is rare to have one of these once every two or three years,’’ Dean of Students Bruce Pitman said. “To have two accidents in two weeks is beyond anything we could imagine.’’ On Aug. 29, a 20-year-old from Boise fell from a third- story window at the Delta Tau Delta fraternity.

University officials planned to meet with student fraterni- ty and sorority leaders to review their risk management procedures Thursday night. The school is also providing counseling for students trau- matized by the accident and will ask the respective house corporations — which pri- vately own and manage the fraternity and sorority prop- erties on the Moscow campus — to perform detailed safety audits on their houses, with particular attention to upper stories. “Just to make sure they have done everything they can possible do to keep them- selves and others safe,’’ said Pitman, who recalls five stu- dents — including the two recently — have fallen from Greek houses in the past four or five years. Last year, a student was standing on the roof of a fra- ternity house taking down holiday decorations when he slipped on ice and fell, Pitman said. In October 2008, a fresh- man fell from a second-floor fire escape at the Alpha Tau Omega fraternity but she was not injured. The 18-year-old was cited for being a minor in possession of alcohol. A 21-year-old student from Boise broke both of his legs and ankles after a 50-foot drop from his fraternity win- dow at the Beta Theta Pi house in March 2006. NO CONTRACTS - NO CABLE TV REQUIRED.
