re: #130 jaunte

Not sure that the alums would have standing to sue. What damage have they suffered as a result? The damage is from current SAE members being racists and being caught on tape doing racist stuff. The OU admin then applied the Code of Conduct to their actions, and SAE’s national organization was the one that closed the chapter.

“Sigma Alpha Epsilon’s national headquarters has closed its Oklahoma Kappa chapter at the University of Oklahoma following the discovery of an inappropriate video,” read a statement posted to the fraternity’s Web site. “In addition, all of the members have been suspended, and those members who are responsible for the incident may have their membership privileges revoked permanently. We apologize for the unacceptable and racist behavior of the individuals in the video, and we are disgusted that any member would act in such a way. Furthermore, we are embarrassed by this video and offer our empathy not only to anyone outside the organization who is offended but also to our brothers who come from a wide range of backgrounds, cultures and ethnicities.”
