The IU chapter of Kappa Delta has been put on cease and desist by both IU and the chapter’s national headquarters, according to the IU Division of Student Affairs website.
The national headquarters of Kappa Delta placed the chapter on cease and desist last Friday, and IU ordered the same probationary measure Monday. This will suspend all social events and restrict new member activities, according to the IU website.
Heidi Roy, director of communications for the Kappa Delta national headquarters, said they are investigating a few individuals for inappropriate behavior.
IU's chapter of Kappa Delta declined to comment and provide details.
Cease and desist is an interim suspension of certain operations of any IU student group when there is an immediate threat or ongoing investigation, according to the website. Groups on cease and desist must put a hold on all activities, including meetings or organized events.
Rebecca Carl, IU chief communications officer, told the Indiana Daily Student in an email Tuesday evening that she was looking into the situation.
CORRECTION: A previous version of this story incorrectly stated who the presidents of the IU chapter of Kappa Delta and the IU Panhellenic Association are. It also failed to clarify which chapter of Kappa Delta declined to comment. The IDS regrets these errors.
