Perhaps.
Frankly, "suspended" and "kicked off" are the same thing. As such, why is it necessary to make a distinction in the list above (i.e. two chapters were "suspended", one "kicked off" and add this chapter to "kicked off") if both end results are similar?

I have to disagree.
When I hear "suspended" I think of "they're gone but they're allowed to come back later".
When I hear "kicked off" I think "they're gone and most likely won't come back".

OTW;
I would agree with you.
My POV is Suspended is being on hold or pending while kicked off is just that.
As the story itself says:"The Sigma Phi Epsilon fraternity, which is different than the Sigma Alpha Epsilon fraternity that was disbanded in November, is under summary suspension at UCF while allegations of hazing pledges are investigated, Local 6 News reported."

and from the outside, Sig Ep one of the nicest looking houses I have ever seen. Its sad that all those guys have to move out (I'm assuming) when school just started.

I completely disagree with you. What is "sad" is what they did. What is "sad" how they are feeding the negative greek stereotype. Forget their house and what it looked like and how they have to move out, they broke the rules and hazed. They will be lucky if moving out is the worst that will happen to them.

Ok to clarify yes I do think it is sad if Sig Ep hazed their pledges. I don't always believe what comes especially since in the last three or months SAE and ATO got in trouble for hazing. SAE got kicked off because of repeated complaints which I thought they should because it was repeatedly complained of over the years. ATO got in some trouble (though I don't think a lot..not sure), but didn't get kicked off campus. It just seems with another fraternity moving off/kicked off campus just seems a little sketchy to me. I would defintiely feel bad if they did haze their pledges, but did everyone do it? I know if a little group of people haze then the whole group gets punished and whether or not thats right thats how it is (from everything I've seen from the outside looking in). I feel bad for the possibility that some of the guys in there might have not known what was going on. From what I read at the beginning someone cried hazing and then the chapter is off campus. I'm not saying that they didn't do it, but with everything else that has happened it just seems a little odd thats all. I did not mean to sound so peachy (it was late at night though and I was probably tired), but I wasn't trying to make huge statements on this thread when they already hadn't been made. I didn't mean to make people so upset, but probably this statement will too. Oh well....
