Hunter Hartwig, assistant director of Sorority and Fraternity Life, said student safety is the primary reason behind a message about a closed fraternity. “Done well, a fraternity experience can benefit the individuals who are part of the group, as well as the community around them,” the advertisement stated. The advertisement stated individuals should inform Sorority and Fraternity Life or contact /contact of any student acting in the name of Phi Kappa Psi. “We maintain contact with the Office of Fraternity and Sorority Life at Ohio State and appreciate their continued partnership during our chapter’s suspension.” “ We are committed to upholding the name of our organization at Ohio State and are prepared to take legal action against any students who use the name and/or likeness of our organization without our permission,” the headquarters said in an email. In an email, Phi Kappa Psi reported that it placed the ad after it learned students were operating under its name. The national office placed an advertisement in the Back-to-School print edition of The Lantern Tuesday stating it does not recognize the Ohio State chapter of the fraternity. Phi Kappa Psi lost its status as a registered student organization at Ohio State June 12, 2018, for hazing and endangering behavior violations of the Code of Student Conduct, according to Office of Student Life records. The national headquarters of Phi Kappa Psi wants Ohio State students to know that it doesn’t have an active chapter on campus and that any students who say they are members of the fraternity will face legal action if they continue to do so.
