After a party at the Tau Kappa Epsilon house at the University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee on September 12, three female students and one male student went the hospital for severe intoxication. The women believe they were roofied; the man drank from one of the women's cups. So UWM finally shut TKE down, in part because the brothers have apparently shown "no remorse" over the incident.

When the incident was first reported, bystanders claimed that TKE bros were using a color-coded system to roofie women at the party. UWM administrators couldn't confirm this, but in a letter to TKE brothers detailing their offenses, UWM Assistant Dean of Students Heather Harbach wrote,

During our group meeting, no one expressed regret, concern, or remorse that four fellow students became so intoxicated at your party that they required emergency medical attention or that all four suspect that their drinks had been drugged.

The letter is dated October 8, and it was published by the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel yesterday.

TKE was not officially charged with drugging anyone, and their charter was instead revoked for "disregarding all of the fraternity's own risk management policies and procedures, knowingly serving alcohol to minors, insufficiently controlling alcohol service and consumption, disregarding the safety of members and guests, and disregarding police authority and laws," according to the Journal-Sentinel.

Harbach did note, however, that all four students who say they were drugged experienced similar symptoms, including "multiple instances" of vomiting, blacking out, dangerously high BAC levels, and "heightened intoxication well beyond their past experiences when consuming similar amounts of alcohol." She also warned that the administration is waiting on analysis of forensic evidence (cups) from the party. It's not clear when this information will be available.

The fraternity can reapply for their charter in two years.
