The Zeta Zeta chapter of Lambda Chi Alpha has entered a resolution agreement with the university following a hazing investigation, Penn State announced Thursday. The incidents started earlier this year.

The investigation was launched in January by Penn State’s Office of Student Accountability and Conflict Response after reports surfaced of alleged hazing tied to the chapter’s spring 2025 new-member process. University officials said the allegations involved practices such as underage drinking, isolation, and acts of servitude.

“Hazing has no place at Penn State,” the university wrote. “The University remains committed to holding individuals and organizations accountable for actions that endanger the safety and well-being of students.”

According to a university release, the chapter served a one-semester suspension in spring 2026 and will now move forward under a comprehensive intervention plan developed in collaboration with Penn State and the fraternity’s national organization.

During the investigation, Penn State said the fraternity had already begun internal corrective measures with support from alumni and national leadership. Those efforts reportedly included the removal of more than 70 members, along with additional education initiatives centered on accountability and chapter culture.

As part of the resolution, the university determined the chapter violated Penn State’s Student Code of Conduct through hazing.

Penn State said Lambda Chi Alpha acknowledged that parts of the chapter’s prior operations did not meet university and fraternity standards. The university also noted that current members were not involved in the conduct under investigation.

Moving forward, the chapter is required to complete several measures under the intervention plan, including university and nationally led training, structured oversight from advisors, and leadership development programming. The fraternity must also maintain regular meetings with the university and adopt an approved new member education process.

The chapter house, located at 351 E. Fairmount Ave. in State College, will also be tasked with creating a hazing-prevention initiative for the broader Penn State community
