The allegations of homophobic and racial slurs during a rivalry football game between New Trier (Winnetka, IL) and Evanston Township (IL) on Oct. 16 at Northwestern's brand-new $862 million stadium have been supported by evidence. New Trier Superintendent Dr. Peter W. Tragos said in a statement on Monday, Nov. 9 , that a joint investigation between the two schools found evidence supporting the alleged hateful slurs New Trier students directed at Evanston band members. "Since the game, we have conducted more than 40 interviews with students and staff," Tragos said in the statement.
