One gentleman who is part of the gay community
Yeah, right.
Delta Lambda Phi is open to gay and bisexual men, and allies, considered "progressive men."
Uh-huh.
The group is now a "colony" at ISU
I'll bet it is. "Leper colony" comes to mind.
"They're a part of us. They're working with us," said Shawn Eagleburger, 22, an ISU interior design major who is president of the Interfraternity Council. "We're very excited to have this group. There's not a whole lot of opposition to it."
Perhaps young Shawn is a wee bit too excited about this new group.
The new fraternity is being mentored by those from the University of Minnesota.
"Mentored." That's a good one.
The University of Iowa in Iowa City ... does not have a chapter ... and does not plan to add a chapter in the coming years.... "Students have not come forth in saying, 'This is something we need and want."'
Keep watching.
Join ISU. We are putting the GREEK back into Fraternity.
I'm sure a faternity that is EXCLUSIVELY hetrosexual would be welcomed as enthusiastically.
Discrimination and creation of a "gay ghetto".
Just an aside.
I wonder who their sister sorority will be. Wait, on second thought why do they need one since they will just hit on one another.
If they ever have a house it'll have to be burned to the ground when they're done with it.
Are you happy, or is that a pack of Certs in your pocket?
Given the way fraternities screen prospective members -- I've seen Animal House a few times -- I suspect everyone assumes all the other houses either ARE exclusively heterosexual or are quietly and exclusively, er, "otherwise."
Great... Dozens of gay men getting drunk together and sharing bedrooms... Can you just feel your health insurance premiums going up?
"Are you happy, or is that a pack of Certs in your pocket?"
Or, to paraphrase the classic:
"Is that snot on my pants or are you just happy to see me?"
Biggest social event would be the paddling of the pledges.
Many of our unversities have outlived their usefullness.
I'm guessing all the sororities will be asking Dontcha Lova Guy fraternity over for makeover exchange parties. Queer pal for the panhellenic gal!
Four legs baaaaad, three legs good
30 guys all majoring in theatre and fashion design. The house will be gaudier than the sororities!
