From IHQ-
Quote:
The International Fraternity believes in and respects the right to Freedom of Expression, even if such expression is meant satirically or in jest. While the photos have garnered significant attention and may be offensive to some, the Fraternity’s primary concern lies in the reference to hazing and alcohol abuse – both of which are issues that have negatively affected Pi Kappa Alpha along with many other student organizations.
The suspension of operations is on an interim basis. The Chapter has already issued an apology and once an educational plan of action is proposed, the suspension will be lifted. The Fraternity hopes to take this opportunity to turn this incident into a teaching moment.
