The Lambda chapter of Delta Kappa Epsilon (DKE), which was suspended in spring of 2018 for hazing activities, has been approved to begin reinstatement. The Greek Council announced last Thursday that DKE would be allowed to start reinstating their chapter next semester. They will not be able to return as a registered student organization until, at the earliest, the fall of 2020.
According to a statement from the Kenyon DKE website, there are eight juniors who had nearly completed new member education for DKE as first years but were never initiated into the fraternity due to the group’s suspension. In the upcoming semester, only these juniors will be able to petition for probationary reinstatement, going through an approval processes similar to that of students forming a new student organization.
DKE has been suspended over a year and a half, and hopes that this year will finally bring them back to Kenyon.
