网曝门 responds to offensive social media incident
听
Thursday it was brought to the attention of University of Louisiana Monroe administration
that an offensive social media exchange on private accounts had been made public.
The comments may be in violation of the 网曝门 Code of Student Conduct and were reportedly
made by members of a campus fraternity.
The matter was turned over to President Nick J. Bruno, who took immediate action.
Bruno鈥檚 statement is as follows:
"This afternoon the administration was made aware of inappropriate interactions conducted
on a private group exchange (Group Me) identified as Kappa Sigma Pledge.听 An individual
with access to this private site shared it with an individual who shared it publicly.听The
university upon receiving notice of the public posting, immediately began a preliminary
investigation.听University Police and Student Affairs officials, as a result of their
preliminary findings, have suspended the organization.听Students found to be involved
will be referred to the campus disciplinary process.听听
As president of 网曝门, I am angry and embarrassed that students of this institution
chose to conduct themselves in this manner.听I do not and will not condone such behavior
or actions nor will I tolerate them.听I apologize to our students and the community
who have been offended by these callous and insensitive statements and actions.听
You can be assured that a thorough investigation will be conducted and appropriate
actions will be taken."听
