Excerpt from report ^ :

Purdue University has placed three of its Greek organizations on probation for violating its hazing policies.

According to a university press release, Pi Kappa Alpha fraternity, 629 University St., and Kappa Kappa Gamma sorority, 325 Waldron St., were placed on probation after new fraternity members were required to drink alcohol and perform tasks for active sorority members at a Big Sis Night.

The fraternity Lambda Phi Epsilon was placed on probation after new members were subjected to psychological and physical abuse, including depriving them of sleep.

Pi Kappa Alpha is on probation through the end of new member education in spring semester 2010.

Kappa Kappa Gamma’s probation is through the end of fall semester 2009.
Lambda Phi Epsilon is on probation until the end of the spring 2010 semester. . .

Jesus Christ. What is going on with Lambda Phi Epsilon? For being such a young organization, its chapters are doing a lot of damage.

Is that the same one that had the pledge die at UT (an Asian fraternity)? The name is familiar.

[knight_shadow]

^^^ Yes, that's them.

It's sad hearing all the negative information surrounding the organization. I know several members from their UT chapter. I would hate for something to happen to their national organization, but if things don't change, they're probably going to go under.

I am so tired of hearing about Lambda Phi Epsilon's hazing, stabbings, arrests, deaths, etc. I don't know how any campus can allow this group to start a new chapter.
