Rollins College Suspends All Fraternities Over ‘High Risk Behavior'

One Florida college is making headlines after suspending all fraternities on campus due to what is being called “high risk behavior.”

Rollins Collins, located just outside Orlando in the city of Winter Park, sent an email to students overnight notifying them that all six fraternities must stop all meetings and activities, according to NBC affiliate WESH-TV.

The email from  from Assistant Vice President of Student Affairs Meghan Harte Weyant said the temporary suspension affects all six fraternities. She said the measure was taken after reviewing a "series of student conduct concerns.'' It didn't list specific incidents.

The suspension doesn't affect sororities.

Weyant said in the email that the suspension was issued "until further notice'' with support of the chapters.

Students will attend a series of summits in late March on values and behavior instead of their normal Greek Week activities.
