A Dartmouth College sorority and two members of a fraternity were charged in connection with the drowning death of Won Jang, whose body was found over the summer in the Connecticut River following an off-campus party, police said.

New Hampshire police found probable cause to charge Matthew Catrambone and Samuel Terry, both 21, with one misdemeanor each for providing alcohol to a person under 21 years of age, the Hanover Police Department said in a news release on Friday. They are both members of the Beta Alpha Omega fraternity, the same one Jang belonged to.

The Alpha Phi sorority as a corporation was charged with one misdemeanor violation of facilitating an underage alcohol house. Police said sorority members hosted the July 6 party and members of the fraternity who were over 21 purchased and supplied alcohol.

The fraternity and sorority were immediately suspended after Jang’s death. These suspensions remain in effect pending the results of the school’s ongoing internal investigation, Dartmouth said in a statement.

Due to federal law, the school said it could not comment on individual student disciplinary matters.
