"Carrington's fraternity had been expelled from campus in 2002 for numerous violations, a fact not lost on UC Berkeley administrators as they considered punishments for Pi Kappa Phi. Rather than expel the chapter and risk a similar result, the university gave the fraternity a year to clean up its act, said Dean of Students Karen Kenney.
"We would have had no control over the members" if the university had revoked the fraternity's charter, she said. "We could have had a renegade chapter crop up in a house or apartment complex."
