Update Jan. 18, 2011: Formal charges against Kappa Kappa Gamma, Pi Kappa Alpha and Sigma Phi Epsilon re: hazing and alcohol violations
http://media.www.gwhatchet.com/media...-3968971.shtml
Excerpts from ^:
Three Greek-life chapters were formally charged with counts of hazing, providing alcohol to minors and underage consumption of alcohol, a University official confirmed Sunday night, moving the months-long controversy one step closer to completion.
Kappa Kappa Gamma, Pi Kappa Alpha and Sigma Phi Epsilon were all issued letters outlining the violations of the Student Code of Conduct the University believes have occurred, Assistant Dean of Students . . . Tara Pereira said.
All three chapters now face a decision of whether or not to plead "in violation" or "not in violation" to the charges.
No punishments . . . will be determined until after Wednesday, when chapter presidents are required to determine how they want to proceed. Presidents can decide whether or not to have a full SJS hearing, or plead guilty to the charges - moving them directly to a sentencing process.
"It is in their hands to make these decisions," Pereira said, adding that after Wednesday, a better timeline for potential sanctions will emerge. . . .
