U of A suspends Sigma Phi Epsilon fraternity amid investigation

The University of Arizona has suspended all activities for Sigma Phi Epsilon fraternity following allegations the organization provided alcohol to minors and created dangerous conditions at unregistered social events.

Officials cited the fraternity for three specific violations of the Arizona Board of Regents Student Code of Conduct.

The suspension prohibits the fraternity from hosting, attending, participating in, or sponsoring any organizational activities, except for club business meetings.

The action comes as the fraternity is already on probation through May 2027 for fall 2025 hazing allegations.

Fraternity leadership must contact the Dean of Students Office by Monday, Oct. 26, to schedule a meeting.

Members are also prohibited from contacting any alleged victims or their families.

University policy strictly prohibits retaliation against anyone involved in the investigation, warning that violations could lead to a loss of university recognition.
