NYU Approves Gay Fraternity Delta Lambda Phi
After a three-semester trial period, New York University has been approved as an official chapter by the Inter-Greek Council, reports the New York Post:
"Matthew Maggiacomo, 21, an NYU senior who is the chapter's founder and president, called the development a 'huge accomplishment.'...'The NYU community has welcomed my group of 11 gay, bisexual and progressive fraternity men with open arms - and for good reason,' he said. The fraternity has engaged in several public-service projects, including running an auction to benefit abused women and children and sponsoring oral HIV testing in NYU dorms."
Congrats to Matthew and the guys at Delta Lambda Phi.

Naturally, all the improvements occur after I graduate.

Glad to see that cool straight guys can join too ... straight men who are secure with their sexuality in my experience are the best "non-queer" male friends a guy guy can have.
FAG STAGS I think is the new name for them.

I just hope they workout. It's a lot easier getting guys. They love a sexy muscular body.

Well it is sad that is has taken this long. Kent State in Ohio has had a chapter since before I went to college so that has to be at least 8 years or more.
