The Sigma Kappa sorority on the campus of California State University in Chico has been suspended after one of its pledges was rushed to the hospital for alcohol poisoning.

"Freshman Bethany Dixon, 18, had reportedly been attending a Sigma Kappa function and was later hospitalized for severe alcohol poisoning Thursday night after her friends called police, said Lt. John Carrillo of the Chico Police Department."

Multiple university departments have launched investigations, with the focus being on finding out who hosted the party and who bought the alcohol. Source: The Orion (Cal State - Chico)
