Program activities of fraternities and sororities at the University of Maryland have been suspended indefinitely, the university announced.
The University of Maryland’s decision comes after the University of Virginia suspended its Kappa Sigma chapter and all fraternity events following an alleged hazing incident last month that left a student injured.
In a statement, the university said that it had “reason to believe that multiple chapters within the Interfraternity Council (IFC) and Panhellenic Council (PHA) have been conducting activities that have threatened the safety and well-being of members of the University community”.
