On the SAE wiki, this incident has already been updated in the "Racial incidents" section.

Other hateful bits and bobs:

    Sigma Alpha Epsilon has a long record of racist incidents surrounding its members. In 1982 SAE members at the University of Cincinnati were suspended for a racially demeaning party corresponding with Martin Luther King Jr.'s birthday.[14] In 2013 SAE members at Washington University in St. Louis were suspended for singing racial slurs to African American Students.[15] In 2014, SAE members at Clemson University were suspended for throwing a racially charged, "Cripmas" party.[16] In 2014, SAE members at the University of Arizona were suspended for attacking Jewish students.[17]

Other fun stuff:

    In March 2014, the fraternity announced that it was eliminating the tradition of pledging following several high-profile alcohol, drug, and hazing-related deaths

Aaaaaaand

    Of all existing national social fraternities today, Sigma Alpha Epsilon is the only one founded in the Antebellum South.

DingDingDingDingDing!

e- this couldve been a comment to the post but i was intrigued that you're studying where all this is going down so I did some research on SAE.
