Effective immediately all activities of Phi Kappa Theta at Lehigh
University have been temporarily suspended. This action is being taken
because of alleged University policy violations by the chapter and its members. Allegations include endangering the health
and safety of students, providing alcohol to minors, failure to adhere to medical
amnesty, and failure to abide by alcohol-free conduct sanctions in place following
a previous hearing.
This interim suspension mandates that no chapter activities of any kind may occur, either on Lehigh University's campus or off-campus for Phi Kappa Theta.
The Office of Student Conduct
& Community Expectations will begin an investigation and this interim
suspension will remain in effect until the formal resolution of these
allegations is concluded. Failure to
comply with the terms of interim suspension will result in additional charges.
Additionally, the Lehigh
University Code of Conduct requires that students and student organizations not
only know and adhere to the Code of Conduct but cooperate with the University
when investigating violations.
