Tau Kappa Epsilon said it took the action Thursday after it was approved by its grand council and board of directors.
The fraternity said it worked together with IU on a joint investigation into the undisclosed violations.
The university issued a written statement supporting the suspension. The statement also says, "The health, safety and wellbeing of our students is a top priority at IU. As soon as IU became aware of alleged activity at the fraternity house, the university initiated its own investigation."
The IU Gamma-Kappa chapter of Tau Kappa Epsilon was founded in 1950.
A message emailed to the chapter seeking comment was not returned.
TKE is at least the fourth national fraternity to close or suspend its IU chapter since the start of 2017.
