Alpha Phi Alpha was banned in 2004 due to [[hazing]] rituals during which a student went into a coma; four members of the fraternity were expelled from SMU as a result.<ref>{{Cite news |date=February 20, 2004 |title=SMU students expelled over hazing incident |work=My Plainview |url=https://www.myplainview.com/news/article/SMU-students-expelled-over-hazing-incident-8804434.php |access-date=August 19, 2023 |archive-date=August 19, 2023 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20230819110821/https://www.myplainview.com/news/article/SMU-students-expelled-over-hazing-incident-8804434.php |url-status=live }}</ref> In 2018, Phi Gamma Delta was ordered to cease all organizational activity pending a university investigation into hazing.

[[Kappa Alpha Theta]] was suspended in 2022 and entered a mutual agreement with SMU through May 2025, after allegations of hazing new members. New members were forced to consume alcohol on February 10, 2022, and were exposed to activities that impacted their safety and health. After Kappa Alpha Theta's suspension, former members established the 501(c)(3) nonprofit, The Society. The Society recruits new members, has a house, and participates in mixers with fraternities, just as Kappa Alpha Theta did. SMU added a provision to its Student Code of Conduct, warning of disciplinary action towards students who affiliate with unrecognized student organizations, such as The Society. <ref>{{cite news|last=Rold|first=Ellis|date=November 27, 2023|title=Thinking Theta?
