Bucknell University investigates attack on LGBTQ house, reports say

Officials at Pennsylvania's Bucknell University said Monday that they are investigating reports of an act of an attack on an on-campus home of LGBTQ students.

The Washington Post reported that the incident occurred on Thursday night at the Fran’s House, which is an on-campus home for students who identify as LGBTQ. The paper said a group of roughly 20 men arrived at the home and began banging on the doors and windows demanding to be let in. The men allegedly hit a pole that had a pride flag and urinated on the porch, reports said. Tyler Luong, the resident adviser, said the men were former members of Tau Kappa Epsilon, a frat that had been banned by the school since 2019. The paper said that when campus police arrived at the scene, they appeared to befriend the alleged attackers.
