What KU’s Five-Year Suspension of Alpha Tau Omega Means for Your Civil Case If you are reading this page, you or someone you love was inside the Alpha Tau Omega house at 1537 Tennessee Street in Lawrence — or you are a parent who just found out what happened there over six consecutive nights in October 2024. You already know the university acted. What you may not know is that the university’s suspension is not the end of the story. It is the beginning of yours. The University of Kansas sanctioned ATO’s Gamma Mu chapter on March 20, removing it as a recognized organization until the spring of 2031. The suspension documents cite hazing, harm to persons, and registered organization policy violations. The chapter itself accepted the findings. A national investigator confirmed the chapter lacked appropriate guardrails to prevent hazing. Two members were expelled. The suspension is the university saying, in writing, that these things happened. What the university cannot do is compensate you. The university’s power runs to the organization — it can shut the chapter down, expel members, and revoke affiliation. It cannot pay your medical bills. It cannot cover the therapy you need. It cannot give back…

When Student Housing Becomes a Fatal Hazard in Manhattan, Riley County, Kansas When a 19-year-old student falls from a second-story window at 3:15 in the morning, the insurance company’s first move is to try to make the case about “choices” or “behavior.” We make it about the building. As a trial firm that handles wrongful death claims across the country, we know that no amount of “student life” excuses a property owner from the non-delegable duty to maintain a physically safe structure. A window in a dormitory or fraternity house is not just a piece of glass; it is a critical safety barrier. If that barrier fails because the sill was too low, the latch was broken, or the required fall-prevention devices were missing, the tragedy is not an accident. It is a structural failure. In Manhattan, Riley County, Kansas, many of the older Greek housing structures present unique challenges where historic charm often masks dangerous code violations. If your family is looking for answers after a catastrophic event at Kansas State University or in the surrounding district, you are likely facing a wall of silence from the university and the fraternity’s national organization. Our work is to break through…

When a Student Housing “Accident” is Actually a Premises Failure When the police state that “no foul play” or “hazing” was suspected in a tragedy, many families in Manhattan, Riley County, Kansas, believe that means there is no path to accountability. As trial attorneys who handle wrongful death claims, we know that “no foul play” only means a crime wasn’t committed. It says nothing about whether the property was safe. When a 19-year-old student falls from a second-story window at a fraternity house like Sigma Chi, we don’t look for a criminal; we look at the glass, the frame, and the height of the sill. In student housing, owners often rely on the age of their buildings to excuse missing safety features. We work to prove that the duty to keep a resident safe is not a suggestion—it is a requirement of the law. The Physical Cause: Window Safety Standards and Building Codes Behind every premises liability case is a specific failure of the physical environment. In Manhattan, Kansas, residential structures—including Greek housing—are governed by the International Building Code (IBC) and the International Residential Code (IRC). These codes are not just for contractors; they are the rules that prevent people…
