U Kentucky: Sigma Phi Epsilon Suspension and Appeal

Fraternity suspended due to alleged hazing

June 10, 2009 by Melissa Vessels

UPDATED JUNE 12, 11 a.m.: Sigma Phi Epsilon has drafted an appeal in response to their suspension, according to a member of the fraternity. The appeal has been granted a hearing set for June 15 with the University Appeals Board.

UK’s chapter of one of the largest national fraternities has received a two-year suspension following a hazing incident, according to the associate dean of students.
The Kentucky Alpha chapter of Sigma Phi Epsilon, located on Pennsylvania Avenue, was suspended on May 8 after alleged hazing involving personal servitude during the pledging process. The fraternity also violated a temporary suspension put in place during the investigation that began on March 5, said Associate Dean of Students Tony Blanton in an e-mail to the Kernel.
According to a letter from the Dean of Students Office to Sigma Phi Epsilon President Aaron Tutt, the organization is “excluded from university premises and all other privileges granted to registered student organizations.” The letter warns that violation of the suspension could result in disciplinary expulsion. The organization has the option to appeal the decision to the University Appeals Board.
Sigma Phi Epsilon will be eligible to apply for university registration on July 1, 2011.
Attempts to contact Tutt were unsuccessful by press time.
