Gamma Nu Chapter Temporarily Suspended Operations Pending an Investigation


INDIANAPOLIS (Wednesday, May 7, 2008). As the result of San Diego State University's interim suspension of the Gamma Nu chapter of Sigma Alpha Mu, the Fraternity has temporarily suspended operations of the chapter pending an investigation.

Gamma Nu was one of six fraternity chapters suspended by the University as the result of an investigation into drug trafficking/sales. One individual affiliated with the Gamma Nu chapter has reportedly been arrested. The chapter has suspended this member and is reviewing his status.

Sigma Alpha Mu Fraternity is committed to developing leaders, fostering scholastic excellence and preparing members to be good citizens. The use and/or trafficking of illegal substances is contrary to the values and traditions of the Fraternity. The Fraternity supports the University's and law enforcement's efforts to fight this major social problem.

Sigma Alpha Mu was founded in 1909 at the College of the City of New York as a Fraternity of Jewish men. Today the fraternity has active chapters on 62 North-American campuses.
