The Theta Delta Chi fraternity, also known as “Thumpty,” has been placed on interim suspension for “credible allegations of serious hazing,” the University announced Friday.

The suspension of Theta Delta Chi marks the second fraternity suspension this month. Last week, the University announced that the Chi Psi fraternity will be placed on interim suspension for reported hazing, which Travis Apgar, associate dean of students for fraternity and sorority affairs, said could have been occurring for several weeks, The Sun previously reported.

Apgar said he could not comment on the nature of the allegations, and members of the fraternity refused to comment.
