LETTER: Campus-wide apology
Oct 30, 2006
The Men of Zeta Beta Tau Fraternity sincerely apologize for the insensitivity of some of its members during a social exchange with Delta Delta Delta Sorority on Oct. 5. Some members engaged in stereotyping and the other members did not step forward to intercede. For both the action and inaction, the members are truly sorry.
Diversity training and cultural sensitivity instruction are now a permanent part of our Brotherhood Education program. The chapter has already scheduled the University’s Program on Intergroup Relations. In addition, chapter leaders have contacted the Director of La Casa Cultural Latina, Adele Lozano, to arrange for workshops and to provide a forum for interaction. We have work to do both inside the chapter and within the campus community.
The chapter realizes the importance of a diverse population on this campus and in this society. While the Latino community is particularly offended, we realize that our actions were disturbing to all right-thinking people.
The men of Zeta Beta Tau
