Purdue University has suspended the Delta Chi fraternity, which was already on probation, after officials determined a game of tag was hazing.Hmmm...Hazing is worth 6 months, allowing someone to get drunk is worth more than a year? Does that work out right?
It is the second fraternity the university disciplined this month.
Fraternity members required pledges to participate in an indoor game of tag that led to pushing and damage to the house, the university found. The game was considered an annual tradition and continued even though chapter advisers had asked the fraternity to discontinue it, the university said in a news release.

Purdue will allow the fraternity to petition for the suspension to be lifted on Aug. 1. If that request is granted, Delta Chi will stay on probation until May 1, 2007, after which it may ask to return to good standing.

Earlier this month, Purdue suspended the school's Sigma Phi Epsilon fraternity chapter for more than a year for violating hazing rules after a pledge was hospitalized for drinking too much at a party.
