The university is investigating allegations of hazing against Acacia fraternity, which has been suspended from all activities until further notice, Penn State spokeswoman Annemarie Mountz said.

---

The university is also investigating a pig roast held by the fraternity to verify the pig was euthanized appropriately, Mountz said, adding the hazing allegations and the pig roast have been determined to be "completely separate" incidents.

"At this point it looks like there was no malice from the information we have, but investigations are still continuing," Moutz said, referring to the pig roast.

Members of Acacia purchased a pig, the sale of which "was handled according to established policy," from the Penn State Swine Center for a weekend pig roast, Mountz said.

"It is our understanding that members of the fraternity, some of whom grew up on a farm and have experience butchering livestock, euthanized the animal," Mountz wrote in an e-mail sent earlier this week.

What does the photo have to do with the story? It wasn't part of the Daily Collegian article.
