Students at Miami held a vigil against hate and Sig Ep was there.
Students gathered at SpectrUM's anti-hate candlelight vigil Wednesday night at the Rock as part of the organization's Coming Out Week activities meant to commemorate all those who have lost their lives to hate crimes.

The vigil also meant to unite students from different cultural, social and political backgrounds. Students in attendance included members of vastly different campus groups such as SpectrUM, Best Buddies, United Black Students, Greenpeace and Sigma Phi Epsilon, among many others.

In addition to speaking out against hatred and its destructive effects, the vigil also empowered students to believe in their abilities to make changes in the world by doing their part to eliminate it.
"I thought it was a very good vigil," John Constantinide, junior, said. "Even though it's yearly and repeats the same theme, it's good to remind people of what's going on because if they're not, it brings about ignorance, which in turn brings about disregard."
Like the bumper sticker says: "Hate is not a family value." It's not a Greek value either.
