OK, from what you have said it IS necessary for us to believe that every chapter has had a gay member, but it's not necessary to ascertain that the chapters existed at that school??! That is what I am having the most trouble with. If someone said they were an ASA from the University of Washington (where we have never been) or a KKG from Clarion (where they have never been) you can bet I'd be emailing and demanding that be removed from the site. Not because I'm homophobic, but because the person who used the group's name would be perping, which is WRONG.
Yes, it IS something to worry about if a person is making any kind of statement and attaching letters to it which do not belong to them. It puts a weight behind the person's actions which is not warranted.
