The fraternity has been suspended by its national organization pending the conclusion of the investigation.
A year earlier, in 2016, Florida State University suspended the Tau Kappa Epsilon fraternity after a member complained that pledges were forced to act like slaves in a Plantation-themed drinking game.
The anonymous TKE member waited until graduation to report the 2013 incident on the school’s anti-hazing website.
According to the report, TKE members forced pledges to participate in a drinking game called ‘Old South,’ in which new members were forced to act as slaves and serve drinks to the fraternity’s senior brothers.
The TKE brothers also reportedly took pledges to faraway places like Ocala (185 miles away) or Thomasville, Georgia (34 miles away), and abandoned them there to find their way back to Tallahassee without their cell phones. nor wallets.
