3rd Annual Holocaust Remembrance Event

Tuesday April 27th, Alpha Epsilon Pi presented its 3rd annual Holocaust remembrance event in partnership with Israel week, Hillel at Temple, Delta Phi Epsilon, and Sigma Alpha Mu. In the early morning on the center of campus we held a name reading for all of the victims of the Holocaust. This event lead into our Holocaust banquet where Holocaust survivor, Michel Jeruchim, told his riveting survival story. The whole event went extremely well due to the great showing of brothers and supporters.
