Syracuse University has suspended a fraternity after videos of a "repugnant" hazing incident went viral on social media.

The incident is alleged to have occurred at the Phi Kappa Psi fraternity house on Syracuse's campus in New York, according to a statement from Chancellor Kent Syverud. 

"The university was recently made aware of videos showing repugnant conduct that put the well-being of some of our students in jeopardy. The videos in question show acts alleged to have occurred at the Phi Kappa Psi fraternity house," Syverud said in a statement. "I am disgusted by the actions that appear in these videos and condemn this conduct."

Syverud added that Syracuse immediately suspended the fraternity, pausing all of its activities while the university investigates the alleged hazing.
