University expels frat over hazing death

BOWLING GREEN (AP) — Bowling Green State University has expelled a fraternity where a student from central Ohio died last month after consuming an excessive amount of alcohol during a hazing event.

The university issued a statement Friday saying the Pi Kappa Alpha fraternity would never again be recognized on campus.

Stone Foltz, a 20-year-old sophomore from Delaware was found by roommates and taken to a hospital in early March and died three days later.

An investigation found that ranking fraternity members forced pledges to drink an entire bottle of alcohol during an off-campus event.

Messages seeking comment were left with Pi Kappa Alpha’s national headquarters.
