A fraternity at the University of Georgia has been suspended for one year after acknowledging a “sustained hazing” of students, according to a media report.
Pi Kappa Phi violated four university regulations, admitting to “forcing and/or requiring the consumption of tobacco products, holding line-ups, requiring participation in physical activities including push-ups, and throwing food and condiments at students,” the Athens Banner-Herald reported.
Under terms of the penalty, all fraternity activities are prohibited and the chapter is “officially closed,” the paper reported. The penalty was effective Sept. 7.
It’s the second yearlong penalty for the fraternity since 2010, according to the report.
