Indiana University has suspended its student spelunking club pending an investigation into how a freshman was locked inside a cave for 60 hours. Cavar was on a beginner's spelunking trip with the Caving Club on Sept. 17 when he was separated from the group. Two club leaders returned to the cave and rescued Cavar on Sept. 19 after learning that his parents had filed a missing person report with university police. The club leaders also contacted the Lawrence County Sheriff's Department and Indiana Department of Natural Resources for assistance that night, said university spokesman Ryan Piurek. The club's student leaders and faculty adviser are looking for ways to change the club's procedures to make sure a similar incident doesn't happen again, said Assistant Dean of Students Steve Veldkamp.
