Sigma Alpha Epsilon, the fraternity whose University of Oklahoma members were shown chanting racist slurs in a now widely circulated video, said Tuesday that it is investigating "several other incidents" of alleged racism involving SAE chapters and members.

"We have been contacted by various parties who have inquired about racist allegations or incidents related to Sigma Alpha Epsilon," Brandon Weghorst, associate executive director of communications for SAE, said in an e-mail. OU expelled two of the students shown in the video Tuesday after it became public. On Monday, the university shut down its SAE chapter and evicted members from their fraternity house.
