Undergraduate Student Government’s Committee on Sexual Assault Awareness and Prevention (SAAP) held an optional quarterly workshop on Sunday that aimed to educate fraternity members on alcohol consumption and bystander intervention. The event’s presentation, made with assistance from the University’s Center for Awareness, Resolution, Education, and Support (CARES), came amid renewed scrutiny of sexual violence and fraternity culture at the University.

Since fraternities are not officially recognized by the University, the University does not exercise the same oversight over them as it does over RSOs.
