Indiana University chapter of Kappa Sigma Fraternity pulled by national headquarters

Kappa Sigma's governing body has pulled the charter for the fraternity's Beta Theta chapter at Indiana University-Bloomington.

According to Indiana University Spokesman Chuck Carney, Kappa Sigma's national office withdrew the fraternity chapter's charter this week for “alcohol, hazing, and other violations of the Code of Conduct.”

"Indiana University is supportive of the national office decision and will support their effort in this matter," Carney said in a statement.

In a statement to IndyStar, the national office said it withdrew the charter on Monday after receiving reports that the chapter had participated in activities that "did not reflect the values of the Kappa Sigma Fraternity which includes fellowship, leadership, scholarship and service."
