Fraternity events on the campus of Indiana University have been temporarily suspended through the spring, as the school joins a growing list of colleges re-examining Greek life this year.

On Monday, Indiana University's student-run Interfraternity Council made the unanimous decision, which affects fraternity social and new member activities "in response to the tragedies happening nationally on other campuses as well as some of the challenges happening within the IU community," the group said.

"No specific incident has happened at Indiana University to precipitate this response nor did IU have any specific plans for actions with the entire fraternity system," the group wrote on Twitter.
