Quinnipiac Investigates Sorority, Orders Chapter to Cease and Desist

Quinnipiac University is investigating a sorority on campus and school officials have put the chapter on hold.

“The organization has been ordered to cease and desist its operation while the university investigates concerns about member behavior,” said John Morgan, Associate Vice President for Public Relations at Quinnipiac.

It’s not clear what that member behavior entails or what the future will hold for the chapter.

The Quinnipiac Chronicle says it's not the first time the chapter has had problems. Alpha Chi Omega National Headquarters investigated the chapter in the spring of 2012, the Chronicle reports.

According to the sorority website, the Iota phi chapter at Quinnipiac was founded in 1996 and comprises more than 160 members. Nationally, the sorority has been around for 128 years.

Quinnipiac Greek Life includes nine sororities and seven fraternities.
