The Interfraternity Council executive board would like to address the incident that occurred on Friday, August 21 in which several fraternity members placed highly offensive banners off their balcony. This was an embarrassing, unacceptable action that the general Greek community strongly denounces. The actions of these few fraternity members do not represent the values that they pledged to uphold. The Interfraternity Council’s judicial board will review this incident.
Students who choose to join the Greek community agree to hold themselves to a higher standard, values such as leadership, scholarship, brotherhood/sisterhood, and service. Moving forward we remain committed to the prevention of sexual and relationship violence, harassment, and abusive behavior and will continue to make this effort a priority. The Interfraternity Council will enhance its educational efforts in this regard and partner with the Women’s Center and Student Government Association to stop all of these types of incidents.
