Indiana University placed the Pi Kappa Phi chapter on cease-and-desist status on September 25, 2026, citing alleged hazing and physical abuse according to the IU Office of Student Life listing reported by the Indiana Daily Student, which said the investigation was ongoing. The available reporting does not describe a specific incident involving Pi Kappa Phi, name an individual member, or report arrests or criminal charges. Cease-and-desist is a university administrative action, not a criminal proceeding. IDS counted Pi Kappa Phi among five IU fraternities restricted during September 2026.
