This has been a huge issue at UNT, with the media getting very much involved. There were articles in the school newspaper, which is very anti-greek, and they even posted the article on the University of North Texas webpage, and its the first thing you spot when you open up the page. The IFC president was an SAE and had to step down at Monday's meeting(he came to panhellenic meeting as well) and it was a very emotional time.
I can also say that there are a ton of rumors flying around on what actually happened.
Its also very sad for the pledges, because after learning about this great fraternity and brotherhood, they will not have the chance to be initiated while being an undergrad, as SAE will not have a chance to come back onto campus until 2007.

If they were actually committing this type of hazing, that's no excuse. The pledges were just as guilty for allowing it to get out of control without contacting the proper authorities.
Something like this is very difficult for the newspaper to just have "made up". SAE would not yank a charter if this was false (I hope). Why anyone would call this a strong brotherhood and an excellent organization when such obvious flaws and illegal practices exist within the organization is purely beyond me.
What looks great from the outside is not always perfect from within.
