MADISON, Wis. (AP) _ There won't be any Fifth Quarter for the University of Wisconsin marching band to perform in Madison tonight.
The band has been suspended while allegations of hazing, alcohol abuse and sexual misconduct are investigated.
That means the band won't play during the nationally televised football game between the 18th-ranked Badgers and 14th-ranked Ohio State at Camp Randall Stadium.
The university made the announcement at a news conference last night, saying the behavior is consistent with conduct that put the band on probation in 2006.
Associate Dean of Students Kevin Helmkamp is leading the investigation.
No details have been released about the behavior, only that it involved inappropriate alcohol use, hazing and sexualized behavior.
The band will practice again starting Tuesday, but with the understanding that it will not perform again until the investigation is done. Penalties for students who violate the university's code of conduct range from a reprimand to expulsion.
