Tau Epsilon Phi Members Sue Nationals/Possible Dissolution of Fraternity
Members of Tau Epsilon Phi have sued their national officers. In "Broughty vs. Hassenberg", members of TEP allege the following issues:
- elections for national officers have not occured since 1999, despite a 2 year office term requirement
- current national officers have used TEP funds for own benefit and have refused requests for financial disclosures
There are several other issues. The judge hearing the case is scheduled to make a ruling on Oct. 21, 2010. One of the options that has been brought up by the platiffs is the dissolution of Tau Epsilon Phi, since they feel that there is no financial stability and that many chapters/members cannot agree on the future of the fraternity.
I am trying to link some articles and the lawsuit.
