Man follows girl into sorority house Man claiming to give speech on security trespasses into the Tri-Delta House Adair-Hayes Crane Staff Writer

A man followed a member of Delta Delta Delta into the chapter house Oct. 26 claiming to be on the PGA tour. The man, Scott Sanders, told a member of Tri-Delta that he was going around the Greek houses to give speeches and asked if he could come in. Sanders followed the girl into the house and waited downstairs. The member he had originally spoken to told Tri-Delta President Alaina Alevizatos there was a man there who wanted to speak to their chapter. Alevizatos went downstairs to talk to Sanders where he proceeded to tell her that he was on the PGA tour and wanted to talk to the entire chapter about safety and security, but it had to be kept quiet. “I went downstairs and he was in our parlor, he had a red PING hat on and a jacket and was carrying a backpack,” Alevizatos, a senior in nutrition science, said. “He introduced himself and said he was a Greek alumni at the Univeristy.” Alevizatos refused Sanders and told him it was not a good time to talk to the chapter. She asked him to leave. Sanders persisted and refused to leave, saying he would like to speak to them another time in what Alevizatos described as an inappropriate manner.
