Washington State University is removing 32 freshmen from two fraternities for their own safety after allegations of hazing, including an alleged incident that resulted in a broken jaw.
The Theta Chi and Delta Chi residents will be temporarily relocated to campus residence halls, according to a statement released late Wednesday afternoon by WSU.
The Student Conduct Board is investigating those involved in the alleged assaults, according to WSU, and disciplinary action is possible.
“We understand that asking students to pack up and move to a different residence on such short notice is not ideal for all involved. But our goal is to help provide these students with a living environment that supports rather than detracts from their educational experience,” vice president for WSU’s Division of Student Affairs, Equity and Diversity Michael Tate said in the statement.
