Mizzou Univ is now claiming the Frat banned for "racial slurs" is now being investigated for teaching Date Rape

COLUMBIA, MO (KTVI)- A University of Missouri fraternity already suspended for possible racial problems is under investigation for allegedly giving pledges date rape drugs and instructing them to use them on female students.



A Mizzou spokeswoman confirms both the Civil Rights & Title IX as well as the Student Conduct officers are investigating the Delta Upsilon fraternity. Dozens of pages of documents Fox 2 obtained reveal allegations of serving alcohol to underage students, hazing pledges and probably the most serious, the question of using date rape drugs.



The allegations against members of Delta Upsilon are serious. In a letter to the fraternity from the Office for Civil Rights and Title IX Assistant Vice Chancellor Ellen Eardley wrote, “Active members of delta upsilon fraternity allegedly provided each new member with three pills and instructed them to drug women for the purpose of incapacitating them prior to engaging in sexual activity. it has been alleged that new members are required to engage in such conduct in order to complete the initiation process.”



Students are talking about the issue. Kenya Liddell said, “We’re supposed to be doing the right thing and being leaders of tomorrow.”



It was just last month the fraternity got in trouble for allegations of using racial slurs and now this. Student Sam Nelson said, “It’s frankly terrifying that men think it’s okay to drug women and take advantage of them.”



The documents are from police reports and the Department of Student Life among other organizations. They contain claims from young women who believed they were drugged. Including one about a pantsless female discovered in Brooks Hall who may have spread feces on a wall. She said she had been to a party at Delta Upsilon and had been drinking. Her friends said she was not acting normally and believe she may have been drugged.
