Jewish Fraternities Denied Recognition
Mon., Nov. 17, 1930
The Board of Trustees denied College recognition to two Jewish fraternities, Sigma Tau Phi and Phi Epsilon Pi, on the premise that the ratio of fraternity to non-fraternity Jewish students would be too high. It was widely assumed that the denial of official recognition to the fraternities was due to antisemitism, particularly on the part of President Filler.
