After a barrage of complaints filed against them to police and city officials, brothers of Western Michigan University's chapter of Tau Kappa Epsilon say they plan to move.

"They're making it more painful to be here than to not be here,'' Tau Kappa Epsilon President Joel Rowden said.

Neighbors of the house and city officials say they are sick of the fraternity's raucous and borderline behavior. Police have cited the fraternity twice for noise violations.

Thirteen brothers live in the chapter's house. Tau Kappa Epsilon moved into the neighborhood this past summer and aren't yet sure when or where they'll move.

"We're civil individuals. We're all just college students. They make it sound like we're Satan's spawn,'' the fraternity's president said.
