Indiana University's Alpha Tau Omega chapter has been shut down, but the university could still take disciplinary action against the individual students involved in a sex video scandal.
ATO's National Fraternity office revoked the IU chapter's charter last week after a video of a member performing a sex act on an exotic dancer while others watched was circulated on social media.
"Our investigation revealed that no pledge was compelled to participate," ATO National Fraternity CEO Wynn Smiley said in a statement last week. "Regardless, the actions are contrary to the ideals and principles of Alpha Tau Omega and are highly offensive."
IU is still investigating whether the students involved violated its Student Code of Conduct. If the investigation uncovers violations, the students would each have to attend a hearing.
IU spokesperson Mark Land says if the hearing board determines there is a violation, a wide range of disciplinary actions could be taken.
"They'll be treated like any other student who's alleged to have violated the code of conduct," Land says.
Land says the hearing process is protected under privacy regulations and the university cannot discuss details of disciplinary actions involving the individual students.
