20-year-old Texas State University student, Jordin Taylor, was killed in October after being struck and dragged by a bus shuttling students to and from a frat party.
Now, four fraternities at the university are being punished. The suspensions range from two to five years, all of which point to alcohol violations that led to Taylor’s death.
The Texas State chapter of Alpha Tau Omega, one of the fraternities involved, was removed completely from campus by the national organization.
