To the MIT community:
The members of Alpha Tau Omega deeply regret the incident involving two
members of the performing group The Roots. We share the MIT community’s
concern and agree that the comment that was made from our rooftop was
inexcusable and must be fairly and appropriately dealt with. To that end,
the two members who were involved are being removed from membership of the
fraternity.
This was an isolated incident perpetuated by very poor choices of two
individuals. Alpha Tau Omega does not tolerate such poor choices. This
fraternity chapter enjoys a racially diverse membership and benefits from
the strength that brings. We have taken action and not looked the other way
because to have done so would have offended our own brothers.
Erik M. Glover
President,
Beta Gamma Chapter of Alpha Tau Omega
