Psi Upsilon Alumni Association President Richard Morse suffered a heart attack last night during a meeting at the fraternity house, located at 36th Street and Locust Walk.
Seventy-year-old Morse was carried out of the house on a stretcher and taken to the Hospital of the University of Pennsylvania at approximately 6:30 p.m.
Morse was visiting the Penn campus to chair a meeting of the fraternity's alumni association, which meets once a month.
According to Psi Upsilon Undergraduate President Carlos Marquez, Morse was administered CPR before he left the house, and he had a pulse upon being carried out.
Marquez said that the heart attack began at approximately 6:15 p.m., and an ambulance left the house with Morse 15 minutes later.
HUP was unable to release any information about Morse's status, and Marquez had no further information about his condition last night.
