A sorority member at the University of Arizona has alleged she was sexually assaulted by two men at a fraternity house in late August. Search warrant records say the student told the university’s police department that she consensually kissed one of the men at one point while at the Sigma Phi Epsilon house but doesn’t remember agreeing to sex.

The sexual assault allegations surfaced two weeks after the university had suspended activities for its 21 fraternities amid reports of misconduct, including assault, hazing and drug- and alcohol-related behavior. Suspensions on all but five fraternities have since been lifted after they had mandatory meetings with the dean of students.
