Leader Florio on leave amid KKK college report

ior last month following Gallaudet University’s suspension of the Kappa Gamma fraternity.

Photos had surfaced of fraternity members wearing robes with pointed hoods that resembled those worn by the Ku Klux Klan and performing Nazi salutes.

At least one photo overlapped with Florio’s time at the university and the Globe reported that Florio told his staff he was not depicted in the photo, but had engaged in offensive behavior.

“Obviously, there’s no tolerance for intolerance, and I’ll leave it at that. But I think it’s important that this be investigated and that investigation is going on right now,” Gov. Charlie Baker said this week.

He added, “It was 30 years ago. There’s a lot of work that needs to be done to follow up.”
