The Stanford Band is used to making headlines - but this was one was unexpected.
In a Friday afternoon news dump, Stanford University announced that the Band would be temporarily suspended through spring quarter of 2017.
The Band had been suspended from traveling to all sports road games for the 2016 season after a May 2015 investigation found that the Band “infringed University policies on alcohol, controlled substances, sexual harassment and hazing,” and the most recent report found that the band had not made the changes the University believed were necessary, leading to the total suspension.
