All activities within the chapter are suspended until further notice. 

According to IU’s definitions of disciplinary statutes, cease and desist is a temporary measure placed upon aspects of chapter operations when there is an immediate threat or ongoing investigation. All organizational activities halt within the chapter during a cease and desist period. Further misconduct could lead to additional consequences such as suspension or expulsion from the university. 

There are currently two other IU fraternities on cease and desist, according to IU’s list of organizations on disciplinary status:

  • Kappa Sigma was placed on cease and desist for alcohol, endangering others, and hazing on August 15. 
  • Alpha Phi Alpha Fraternity was placed on cease and desist for hazing on September 1.
