Southern University expels Omega Psi Phi fraternity from Baton Rouge campus

On Friday, the university released a notice to students, informing them of the expulsion.

“The Beta Sigma Chapter of Omega Psi Phi Fraternity Inc. has been expelled from Southern University and A&M College. The decision comes after investigations into hazing allegations earlier this year.

The Division of Student Affairs conducted a disciplinary hearing to determine whether the chapter was responsible for violations of the student code of conduct, including hazing. The board found the chapter responsible, resulting in the expulsion of the chapter.

Expulsion is the termination of the chapter as a registered student organization. The chapter is denied all privileges and rights associated with recognition at Southern University, and must remove identifiable markers from campus. This includes the fraternity plot (i.e. benches, trees, monuments, etc.) and other items.”

The expulsion comes after the recent death of a student, Caleb Wilson, in an alleged hazing incident.
