Former SAE President Resigns From National Office, Spills His Guts In Emotional Facebook Post
Brad Cohen was President of Sigma Alpha Epsilon when they abolished pledging from their rite of passage to brotherhood. He didn’t leave his position as Eminent Supreme Archon until last June when Steven W. Churchill was elected.
Brad still would work with SAE nationals after Churchill took over. According to his LinkedIn profile, Cohen was serving on the SAE Foundation Board of Trustees until last night when he took to Facebook to announce his decision to resign. He’s pretty emotional, even referencing a “typical snot nosed undergrad.” Love it.
So what exactly set Brad off? What did these kids do that made him skewer his brothers on Facebook and leave his position with SAE? After everything that has happened to SAE over the past year or so, this has to be something huge. But what could be bigger than a racist chant that made national headlines, throwing a Cripmas party, or having a social chair send a creepy email about picking up women?
The only thing that I can can think of is that some kid told him that his SAE chapter was going to actually perform the next mass extinction of all non-Greeks. Now THAT would be something to resign over. No word on whether SAE will fill the void Brad left with someone else..

God damn when will we stop embarrassing ourselves? Nobody feels bad for you, retire quietly and give us our pledges back.
9 years ago at 12:04 pmMet Brad and he told me he restarted their chapter as a colony at ASU after they were kicked off for hazing. He was an awkward South African boy who built their chapter, and eventually ΣΑΕ to be PC and pledge free. Way to be a Brother Zero and denounce the brotherhood, Brad. I hope the new ESA has some balls and brings back the pledge process some how. Then you won’t have to worry about asshole undergrads at leadership school because they will be real TG
9 years ago at 2:34 pmChurchill is awesome, but there’s no way pledging is gonna come back :/
9 years ago at 4:07 pmHe took pledging away because at least one SAE had died every year since 02 and some asshole wrote an article called “SAE the world deadliest frat”. I hate him for it, but it’s tough to blame him for it
9 years ago at 2:38 pmI laughed so hard at the first two sentences. Does that make me an asshole?
9 years ago at 12:08 pmYes, but that shit was funny.
9 years ago at 12:16 pmJesus this has been a rough 3 years for us. He can’t even read over his statement before posting it. As always march onward, f nationals and keep our tradition and brotherhood alive TG’s.
9 years ago at 12:18 pmFunny how the guy responsible for removing pledges is bitching about how entitled new members are
9 years ago at 12:27 pmtbt to pledges.
9 years ago at 3:13 pmIt’s like life is dull and gray now
9 years ago at 7:26 pmWho do you know here?
9 years ago at 7:27 pmBrad Cohen can eat a dick. Resigning your membership? What happened to being phi alpha dead goddamit
9 years ago at 12:40 pmConsider me part of the “0.1%” that’s happy to see him resign.
9 years ago at 1:21 pmWhy the fuck does having a Facebook account make everyone think they need to post some long quasi press release for every career move or personal decision they make?
9 years ago at 12:41 pmWhat about the part where nationals puts the blame solely on the chapter and immediately disowns them at the sight of an issue? It’s not an undergrad problem…
9 years ago at 12:46 pmWonder if he solved that issue of nationals squandering dues money on lavish meals and bullshit. Must be the goddamn undergrads forcing them into it. Undergrads, never accepting accountability, disgusting.
9 years ago at 2:02 pmSAE is so awful that they literally broke their national office.
9 years ago at 12:49 pmShame on whatever brother sent screenshots of Brad’s post to a news outlet. What ever happened to keeping matters between brothers internally? Right while we are trying to sell SAE to graduating high school seniors.
9 years ago at 12:57 pmHe posted it on Facebook. It’s not exactly a private platform
9 years ago at 1:15 pmI can’t believe it took him this long to realize what a bunch of shit bags SAEs are.
9 years ago at 12:58 pmSorry you didn’t get a bid
9 years ago at 2:19 pmNo, the problem is everyone got a bid and got initiated that night. There has got to be millions and millions of you fuckers now. I guess that’s why I got so many laps.
9 years ago at 2:25 pmNo, I think its because you are an asshole.
