The above link is the recent article regarding the suspension of Sigma Chi.

The article states.....Universities are taking hazing allegations seriously these days proven by the University of Houston. UH suspended the Sigma Chi fraternity and five students following allegations of hazing.

University of Houston president Renu Khator released a statement:

"Today, I am placing the Epsilon Xi chapter of Sigma Chi Fraternity, a Greek organization that is part of the University of Houston Center for Fraternity and Sorority Life, on immediate suspension following disturbing allegations of hazing within the fraternity."
......."Let me be clear, hazing is a criminal act, and consent is not a defense. Failure to report hazing also is a criminal offense and a violation of University policy. Those who engage in such reckless and immature behavior will be punished to the full extent of the law and in accordance with University policies. As a reminder, anyone can file a complaint report anonymously through the MySafeCampus online reporting system."

Today, the University of Houston Police Department turned over its findings to the Harris County District Attorney’s Office, which will determine what, and if, charges are filed. To protect the integrity of the ongoing investigation, and to comply with student privacy laws, neither I, nor the University, will comment beyond this statement at this time
