NYU allows gay
fraternity

New York University's Inter-Greek Council has allowed Delta Lambda Phi, a gay and bisexual fraternity, to be recognized on campus after a three-semester trial period. The New York Post reports that the fraternity has worked on several public service projects, including running a benefit auction to raise money for abused women and children, and offering HIV testing in the college's dorms.

"The NYU community has welcomed my group of 11 gay, bisexual, and progressive fraternity men with open arms--and for good reason," Matthew Maggiacomo, the chapter's president, told the Post. (The Advocate)
