WVU Fraternity Cleared Of Hazing Allegations

MORGANTOWN, W.Va. (AP) – A West Virginia University fraternity has been cleared of hazing allegations but will be sanctioned separately on other violations. The school said Thursday that Pi Kappa Phi and the school agreed to end the fraternity’s interim suspension related to alleged hazing. The chapter will be on deferred suspension through February and lose some privileges through June. Office of Student Rights and Responsibilities Director Jill Gibson says no evidence of hazing was found but the investigation did find recruitment and alcohol violations of the Student Conduct Code. WVU says the fraternity agreed to participate in education, training and harm reduction programs.
