Alcohol, parties banned at EMU fraternity for 10 years

Quote:
YPSILANTI, Mich. (WXYZ) — Parties are banned at Delta Tau Delta at Eastern Michigan University for the next 10 years. Thursday, the fraternity reached a settlement with the Washtenaw County’s Prosecutor’s Office and the city of Ypsilanti.
According to the order, alcohol isn’t allowed at any of their properties and gatherings are limited to five guests.
.....
“What we saw with this particular fraternity was a whole host of sexual assaults that were linked to the parties, that were linked to the underage drinking, that were linked frankly to a culture in which there was no bystander intervention even when there was sexually aggressive behavior,” Savit explained.
.....
Under the order, members of the fraternity must do an annual training for “sexual assault prevention, bystander intervention and responsible alcohol consumption.” Also, Delta Tau Delta will be required to raise funds for a nonprofit that helps sexual assault survivors.
.....
If the fraternity doesn’t abide by the order, Savit said there’s the possibility of sanctions and escalating penalties. On the other hand, he said the prosecutor's office has the discretion to shorten that 10-year restriction as it monitors the fraternity's progress.

I want to clarify: for multiple sexual assault allegations with no bystander intervention, the school has allowed them to stay on campus and isn't punishing them in any way, and they made a deal with the prosecutor's office to simply not hold drunken parties at the house?
