Campus Police is currently investigating allegations that individuals working for both the Langley and Quick campaigns for student body president tampered with and removed their opponent’s advertisements throughout campus on Sunday night.

Although many of the specifics have not yet been released by Campus Police, Langley said pledges to Quick’s fraternity, Sigma Chi, were responsible for taking down many of his advertisements.

“About 200 of my signs disappeared within an hour,” Langley said.

IFC President Chris Mangieri said he hoped this situation did not insinuate mistreatment of pledges on the part of Sigma Chi and any allegations of hazing are unfounded and incorrect.

Langley said after visiting the fraternity house with the police, several individuals were questioned and both a campus ticket and a district court ticket were issued to offenders.

Sgt. Jon Barnwell of Campus Police said, however, no court tickets were issued.

“These poor kids want to be in the fraternity so bad they will even lie to police officers,” Langley said.

Quick adamantly denied all these charges saying that they are merely the product of rumors being blown out of proportion.

“I was there at the same time as Langley and received the same information,” Quick said. “I am not aware of anyone on my campaign team taking down Langley’s signs.”

Quick commented that some campaign signs were taken down by the maintenance crews throughout the campus, but no one from his fraternity is responsible.

“I’m not sure where that information is coming from,” Quick said. “The one member of my fraternity who was questioned was not issued anything and was very cooperative with the police officers.”

Barnwell said more detailed information will not be released until Wednesday after the investigation report is filed.

“No one has been issued court tickets, but we are investigating both parties for tampering with campaign signs,” Barnwell said. “It’s not just Quick. We have received some information regarding Langley as well.”

According to Langley, these allegations could mean the end for Quick in this election.

“People have already decided that they will vote for me and when they hear about this, it will be the straw that breaks the camel’s back,” Langley said.

Elections Commission Chair Kevin Hassell said he had filed for a police report and will take action depending on the information that he receives. He commented that through all the problems that the elections have had this year, the commission is doing their best to serve the students.

“It has been a rough month, but we have been able to make it hopeful,” Hassell said.
