Excerpt:

. . . The Tau Gamma Chapter of Chi Omega, established at Wittenberg in 1924, was ordered closed by the Governing Council effective Aug. 27, “due to activities found to be inconsistent with Chi Omega’s national policies,” according to a Chi Omega release.

In March, the sorority had been put on probation due to hazing. The chapter was given directives it had to follow for reinstatement this academic year. According to the Chi Omega release, national team representatives met with chapter members and university officials on Aug. 25 and decided those directives had not been met and ordered the chapter closed.

Chi Omega national representative, Beth Stavos, was en route to Wittenberg from Tennessee on Friday, Sept. 4, and could not be reached for comment. No other details were given. . . .

The official Chi Omega announcement is on the Chi O web site:
