ANN ARBOR, Mich. (AP) – The president of the University of Michigan has condemned the antisemitic vandalism of two fraternity houses.
President Santa Ono sent an email to students saying the vandalism included broken windows and “nasty, homophobic, and anti-semitic” messages painted on both houses, including a swastika in one of the buildings.
“These types of events directly conflict with the university’s deeply held values of respect and inclusion and have no place in our campus community or the wider Ann Arbor community,” Ono wrote in an email.
Both houses are vacant in the summer.
The Ann Arbor Police Department is seeking tips about vandalism. The damage is believed to have occurred early last week, media reported.
