A troubled fraternity already facing possible expulsion from the University of Arizona is being accused of additional wrongdoing after members of a Jewish UA fraternity were attacked Friday, school officials said.
About 15 local members of Sigma Alpha Epsilon fraternity βforced entry into the off-campus residence of UA students, yelling discriminatory comments at the UA students and physically assaulting them,β said a letter from the schoolβs Dean of Students.
A UA news release Monday identified the assault victims as members of the Jewish fraternity Alpha Epsilon Pi.
Sigma Alpha Epsilon has now been placed on interim suspension of recognition, one disciplinary step below being kicked off campus.
Its members have been ordered to stay away from members of the Jewish fraternity.
