Greek activities at University of Buffalo suspended at least until fall after possible hazing [View all]

Activities of Greek-letter fraternities and sororities will be suspended at the University at Buffalo at least until the start of the fall semester as the university conducts an internal review following a suspected case of hazing, UB announced Monday.

Recommendations from a yet-to-be-named panel are due by the start of the fall semester, said A. Scott Weber, vice president for student life.

The committee, which will be chaired by Graduate School of Education Dean Suzanne Rosenblith, will consist of between 10 and 15 members, including students, faculty and staff, Weber said during a news conference on North Campus.

The work to be undertaken by the Greek life review committee will include looking at educational strategies regarding the university's "zero-tolerance policy" on hazing, as well as health and safety programs for fraternities and sororities, including anti-hazing and "Good Samaritan" policies.
