Although State College police are pressing charges against the members of Delta Tau Delta fraternity allegedly involved with a fraternity prank on Friday, greek community officials said they are waiting until more details become available before taking action.

According to court documents, three students are being charged for their involvement with Friday morning's incident -- a faux kidnapping of members of Delta Tau Delta fraternity, 429 E. Hamilton Ave.

Court documents said three fraternity pledges, Timothy Antoian, 18, Lee Hugar, 19, and Chad Norris, 18, were involved in the incident where two members were duct taped and put in the back of a U-Haul truck.

Antoian is charged with misdemeanor charges of disorderly conduct, selling or furnishing alcohol to minors and unlawful acts relative to liquor, and summary offenses of disorderly conduct, misrepresentation of age to secure liquor and carrying a false identification card, according to court documents.

Hugar is charged with a misdemeanor count of disorderly conduct and summary offenses of disorderly conduct and purchase, consumption and possession or transportation of liquor, according to court documents.

Norris is charged with a misdemeanor offense of disorderly conduct and a summary offense of disorderly conduct, according to court documents.

Another pledge brother, Sean Shapiro, was a passenger in the U-Haul truck, but was not charged because he was not directly involved in the kidnapping, State College Police Sgt. Mark Argiro said.

The pledges were planning to take the fraternity brothers to the University of Virginia chapter of Delta Tau Delta as part of pledge initiation for a "Bolt" activity, according to court documents.

"We are looking at this aggressively," said Kevin Kerr, director of fraternity and sorority life.

Kerr said he recognizes the incident as an act of hazing and has been working with fraternities since his arrival to understand the definition and consequences of hazing.

"This is an instance we're pursuing, but we can't characterize it [as a trend] and make it across campus," he said.

Interfraternity Council (IFC) President Brian Bertges said although this incident reflects negatively on the greek community, it forces them to realize it is occurring, and presents an opportunity to correct hazing problems.

"During president's council we spoke about how there is hazing going on and that we do not condone or tolerate it," he said.

Jim Russell, executive vice president of the Delta Tau Delta national chapter, said the national chapter and Penn State's administration are looking into punishment for the fraternity.

"Our judicial process either leaves the chapter to punish itself, or punishment by us," he said.

Lewis Watts, Delta Tau Delta's Penn State chapter adviser, said the fraternity did not try to hide what happened from the IFC or their national chapter.

"What we never do is cover up. We are being completely open," he said. "There is definitely going to be some price to pay."

Watts said as of now, Delta Tau Delta's spring pledging program will continue.

"It is premature to place any blame as of now," he said.

Kerr said although the prank was an unnecessary event, the greek community will work to get through the situation.

"I think we will work through it, just as we will work through every challenge," he said.
