(CNN) -- The Florida A&M University marching
band's fraternity charter has been revoked for five years because of a
hazing incident two years ago, the Kappa Kappa Psi National Fraternity
said Monday.
Florida A&M President
James Ammons announced Tuesday that the band would remain on suspension
through the 2012-2013 academic year after another hazing that resulted
in the death of a student last November.
Thirteen people have been
charged in connection with the death of Robert Champion, 26, who was
badly beaten during last year's incident on a band bus after a football
game in Orlando.
The 28 fraternity members
and alumnus members who were present during a hazing in the spring of
2010 have been expelled from the fraternity, the group said.
The school's Delta Iota chapter can apply to reactivate its charter in May 2017, it said.
