MORGANTOWN, W.Va. (AP) — The Delta Tau Delta fraternity chapter at West Virginia University has been suspended in response to a fraternity member's video.

Multiple news media outlets report that the fraternity's national headquarters suspended the chapter indefinitely on Tuesday after a student posted a video showing him touring the fraternity house while making comments about women that the school deemed inappropriate.

According to a university news release, the student also described social functions that violate codes of conduct.

The school says the member could face disciplinary action from the university's Office of Student Conduct and the WVU Interfraternity Council.

Roy Baker is associate dean of students and director of Greek life. He says it's unfortunate that the actions of the individual have sullied the entire organization's reputation.
