At the University of Arizona, the Sigma Phi Epsilon fraternity has been suspended following allegations that two men sexually assaulted a female student in August.

Associate Dean of Students Whitney Mohr informed the fraternity in a letter that it poses a "substantial risk to members of the university community."
Although the local chapter did not respond to contact attempts, the national fraternity organization stated that it has ordered Arizona chapter members to cooperate with the investigation. Sigma Phi Epsilon strongly condemns sexual assault and misconduct, suspending the individuals involved while the investigation proceeds.
