UA Greek Affairs Executive Director told the CW the following about the fall semester pledge period, according to a tweet: "The pledge program is over. It's not going to be brought back. It's done."

"The office of Greek Affairs will continue to investigate the allegations, refer to past events, and work with other universities to ensure that the future pledging is safe for all students and safe for all individuals involved," Davis also told the CW. "There's a new day at the University, a new president. We can't allow the things that have taken place in the past to continue."

The Greek Affairs office said UA Media Relations will release more information between 4-4:30 p.m. on Thursday.
