A day after school officials announced a school-wide suspension of all fraternity activities because of an allegedly racist incident, more racist graffiti was discovered at Syracuse University.
On Sunday, department officials said they had gathered “substantial evidence” that a group of fraternity members subjected a black student to a “verbal racial epithet” over the weekend.
Only one fraternity was said to be involved, but university Chancellor Kent Syverud said Sunday that a temporary ban would be instituted on all fraternities. “Given recent history, all fraternities must come together with the University community to reflect upon how to prevent recurrence of such seriously troubling behavior," Syverud said.
The suspension came amid student protests about previous incidents of racism and a request from New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo to investigate.
