The definition of "public accomodation" is fairly long and extensive, but includes places of lodging.

Sec. 307 exempts "private clubs" from the ADA -- I don't know if a fraternity house would meet the definition of "private club" in the Act.
True!

But the main point is that The Bothers of Delta Tau Delta being a Greek Organization saw in a possible Brother something special even with his imparement.

This is an amazing story and shows what Greeks really are and can be!

Kudos + for the Members of a fine and old Fraterity.

Edited to add, that you can bet Kerry has no lose for friends!

Is he spoiled? What do you think!
