In Wake Of OU Incident, SAE Now Has National Director Of Diversity And Inclusion

In Wake Of OU Incident, SAE Hires National Director Of Inclusion And Diversity

Back in March, the video of the OU SAE chant went viral and led to the chapter closing, two students getting expelled, lawsuits, and eventual apologies from the two kids. It was a mess of a situation.

The national fraternity would then announce an initiative to investigate the diversity in their chapters nationwide. Today, they have hired their National Director Of Diversity And Inclusion.

From OU Daily:

Evanston, Illinois-based Sigma Alpha Epsilon fraternity said in a news release Thursday it had hired North Carolina native Ashlee Canty to help oversee efforts to enhance diversity at the fraternity’s more than 200 chapters.

The position is part of an initiative announced by the fraternity in March.

Hopefully, this will help SAE close the chapter of their book and move on from this.

    If this was your fraternity, I can only assume that it would respond similarly.

    Might as well hand out bids to everyone on campus so everyone can be included…

    First piece of actual fraternity news in days and you write a paragraph and a half, add a quote, and call it day. This is actually something worth the Greek community talking about and it deserved more than this shitty excuse for an article.

    The training had us watch life according to jimmy’s fattiest man in the world video, then it asked us to write about the greek life stereotype so we can learn about how the world views us. I wrote that the world has no understanding of the word satire

    At SAE at Alabam they were told they had to have at least one diversity pledge. So they pledged a midget.
