CU Boulder suspends Phi Kappa Sigma over hazing
The University of Colorado Boulder placed the Phi Kappa Sigma chapter on interim suspension after receiving a credible hazing report on Dec. 1 (formally logged Dec. 2) and at least two additional anonymous reports alleging 'extreme or severe hazing.' A campus safety alert issued Thursday night urged tips to Student Conduct and Conflict Resolution, Safe2Tell, or Metro Denver Crime Stoppers, while Boulder Police said no substantiated hazing cases are on record and three recent reports were unfounded or closed. The fraternity’s national office said it is partnering with the university in the investigation.
