Some other students have found housing on campus in greek houses, such as at the Sigma Phi Epsilon fraternity, which is hosting two students from Tulane University.That's why Sig Eps are so strong. When a brother needs help we are there for him. Way to go NY Alpha.
Alex Korn, one of the two students, praised the fraternity for how helpful they have been.
"This whole fraternity has been an unbelievable help," said Korn, a sophomore political science major. "Everyone in the house has been completely accommodating. They couldn't really be any nicer."
A member of the SigEp fraternity at Tulane University, Korn called the Syracuse chapter to inquire if it had an opening in its house for him. Although it turned him down initially, Korn received a call from the national office that same day informing him that the Syracuse chapter had freed up a room for him, he said.
Chris VanDeWeert, president of the Inter-Fraternity Council and a member of the fraternity, said it was the least his fraternity could do for a fellow SigEp brother.
"This is the first opportunity my house has had to really see that we're beyond this chapter and that you have a duty as a brother," he said. "No matter where they're from, especially in a case like that, it's two people who were in extraordinary circumstances and needed to be helped out."
