Sorority At Indiana University Shut Down After Investigation

Last updated on Monday, March 6, 2017

(BLOOMINGTON) - A sorority chapter at Indiana University is being shut by its national organization following an investigation into activities of its members.

The IU Delta Omicron chapter of Delta Delta Delta was revoked Saturday after Sorority President Kimberlee Di Fede Sullivan says the decision came after an investigation found members had been involved in "activities that do not represent our high standards" or purpose. She says the national chapter is "deeply disappointed in the choices made by members of our chapter."

"We are deeply disappointed in the choices made by members of our chapter at Indiana," Sullivan wrote in the statement. "The decision to withdraw Delta Omicron's charter was made by the Executive Board, in concert with chapter volunteers, and with heavy hearts for all involved. We will work closely with our collegiate members, loyal alumnae and Indiana University through this challenging situation."

The statement did not go into detail about what will happen with current members or those who currently live in the Tri Delta house, located at 818 E. Third St., on the south side of campus.

Indiana University says in a statement that it was informed of the decision and says there are "no current university disciplinary actions against the sorority."
