SAN DIEGO — Seven fraternities have been placed on interim suspension by San Diego State as the university investigates reports of misconduct.
The seven separate interim suspensions were announced by SDSU’s Office of the Dean of Students on Wednesday.
According to SDSU, the interim suspensions force the fraternities to pause organizational activities during the university investigations.
The fraternities that were placed on interim suspension are:
- Phi Kappa Psi Fraternity
- Sigma Alpha Epsilon Fraternity
- Sigma Chi Fraternity
- Phi Delta Theta fraternity
- Kappa Alpha Order
- Pi Kappa Alpha
- Delta Sigma Phi
Following the conclusion of the investigations and any findings of misconduct, the university would issue a formal suspension.
“No fraternities have been sanctioned with a suspension from the university during the current academic year,” SDSU said in a statement to CBS 8.
Interim suspensions are used as a measure to address behavioral concerns within campus student organizations as the university conducts an investigation, SDSU said.
