Full recovery expected. Not clear if alcohol was primary issue. Suspension will be fully lifted in less than a week.

I know that individual chapters get suspended, but never heard of all the chapters being suspended. Has this ever happened before?

Absolutely! And the chapters were not suspended- just their activities. There is a difference.

Clemson suspended all Greek life activities after Tucker Hipps the SigEp pledge died last fall. It wasn't a suspension of chapters, but the essence was the same because the only thing we could do was meet for chapter meetings during that time anyways.
