Penn State Frat Suspended For Year Over Nude Facebook Pics
HARRISBURG, Pa. (AP) — A Penn State University fraternity is being suspended for a year as police investigate allegations that members posted photos of nude and semi-clad women on a private Facebook account.
The national executive director of Kappa Delta Rho told the Penn State chapter in a letter on Tuesday it must reorganize and is banned from most activities for the near future.
The chapter can appeal the decision. Chapter officials haven't responded to messages seeking comment.
A Penn State administrator calls the allegations a violation of the standards and values required for recognized student organizations.
Damon Sims, Penn State's vice president for student affairs, calls the postings "appalling, offensive and inconsistent with the university's values and expectations."
