Greek Life

This fall, massive student protests at colleges across the country were calling on administrations to permanently remove certain fraternities from their campusues, often in response to allegations of sexual assault. The Chronicle tracked more than two dozen institutional sanctions against fraternities and sororities this semester, finding that none have been expelled. More than two dozen fraternities and sororities were suspended by their institutions this semester, but the suspensions ranged widely, from a matter of days to years. For most though, the timeline is unknown, as colleges and universities work to complete investigations. Activists argue that suspensions won’t deter sexual violence or other common problems in Greek life.
