Yep you were right it was Arkansas. And some how I was told Arizona, which is why rumors are so retarded.

Here is the news article I found
*******
5/11/04
Magnolia (AP) - A lawsuit filed in Columbia County Circuit Court alleges that members of a Southern Arkansas University fraternity beat a pledge so badly he spent eleven days in a
hospital, underwent kidney dialysis and must have skin graft surgery.

The suit claims that during an April 16th initiation, members from the Delta Iota chapter of Sigma Tau Gamma Fraternity beat 19-year-old Ty Keith with excessive force on his buttocks, thighs and back.

The incident happened off campus, and Keith has not returned to school since then. SAU officials suspended the fraternity April 29th.

The suit names as defendants the national fraternity and the local chapter in Magnolia, local chapter president Adam Dixon, and chapter adviser J. Courson. Neither Dixon nor Courson could be reached for comment.

Keith is asking for a jury determination of punitive damages.
