Southern University Expels Beta Sigma Chapter of Omega Psi Phi Fraternity Following Hazing Death

EAST BATON ROUGE PARISH, LOUISIANA, JUL 19 – Southern University revoked all privileges of Omega Psi Phi's Beta Sigma Chapter after it was found responsible for hazing that caused a student's death during a February ritual.

  • Southern University has revoked recognition of its Omega Psi Phi fraternity’s Beta Sigma Chapter following a fatal hazing incident on the Baton Rouge campus.
  • The expulsion resulted from an investigation conducted earlier this year by Southern University's student affairs department into hazing allegations connected to Caleb Wilson.
  • Wilson, a 20-year-old mechanical engineering student, died in February after being punched repeatedly during a fraternity hazing ritual at a Baton Rouge warehouse.
  • Caleb McCray, 23, faces legal accusations including criminal hazing and manslaughter after allegedly delivering four punches to Wilson, which caused him to collapse and lose consciousness.
  • Consequently, the chapter was stripped of all campus privileges, lost its status as a recognized student organization, and is required to take down any physical signs representing it, such as plots and monuments.
