Here are the fraternities listed:

Theta Chi
Phi Kappa Psi
Delta Sigma Pi

... and one of them says "SAE marijuana ring", but I don't know if that means Sigma Alpha Epsilon or SAE stands for something totally different.

The campus newspaper will be a rather interesting read for the next few days and weeks to come.
http://media.www.thedailyaztec.com/m...-3366132.shtml :
Phi Kappa Psi President David Lee said he was shocked when he heard about the drug investigation.


"I had no idea that any member of our fraternity did anything of this nature," Lee said. "We've always had a zero tolerance rule on any illegal substances. This year, we've implemented a harsher rule that anyone using or selling these illegal substances would be kicked out."

Lee said he was unaware of the underground drug trafficking because of the way the fraternity house is set up.

"We only own the chapter house … the members were in their own apartments," Lee said. "They showed no signs of illegal activity."

Lee said out of the individuals arrested, only one is an active member.

"The others are either alumni that are no longer affiliated with this chapter or inactive, where they are also no longer affiliated with this chapter," Lee said.
Many fraternity presidents instructed chapter members to keep quiet during the ongoing media storm.

One of the "Student Drug Dealers" is in Sigma Alpha Mu (although not listed as such on there)...

God what a nightmare for their alumni and HQ.

Wasn't it UVA several years ago when some fraternity houses were seized by the government for members selling drugs?

And a nightmare for those legitimate brothers who are members but had honestly no idea this was going on and are likely to face expulsion and no alumni status.

It is a sad day for Theta Chi and all the other organizations involved and for the Greek community at this school.

I find it hard to believe that there could be that much cash, guns, and drugs and there would be members who didn't know what was going on there.

From looking at the PDF posted on the previous page, it looks like the guns and a lot of the money was seized from other places, not the fraternity house. This was quite an operation, though it looks like the characters involved were not necessarily connected. They seemed to have "specialized."

Given the over all context, I fear that it does mean Sigma Alpha Epsilon. However there is a Society of Automotive Engineers club on campus as well.
As for the name given-well I checked it out. It is possible that there maybe a connection.
No idea what The Ring is all about.
