I would agree w/ everything "sugar and spice" just said however I would take it a step further......
Instead of merely focusing on the alleged gay-bashing (which, from what you described was less than 1% of Greeks at the campus) I would focus on intolerance and prejudice as a whole.
The recommendation for "sensitivity training" is a good one--if it goes both ways. The letter to the editor that you posted was every bit as hateful as the 2 persons who supposedly shouted those comments. So while it would be a positive PR gesture for the Greek system to have "sensitivity training" regarding LGBTQ issues, it would be equally appropriate to have "sensitivity training" among the LGBTQ community (and the letter-writer in particular) regarding prejudice and hatred towards organizations with people different from them. I'd be emphasizing that 2 people or 2 comments at a single event do not justify the comments made in the letter.
50 cents worth.
