Munchkin03 is right -- Tri Delta is one of maybe 2 or 3 NPC organizations which forbids denying membership based on sexual orientation. We were the first to do it -- I believe it was added to our bylaws in 2002? Another sorority added it to their national policies sometime after we did, but I can't remember which sorority that was . . . anybody know?

The following IFC fraternities have the same policy:

Lambda Chi Alpha
Pi Kappa Phi
Kappa Delta Rho
Theta Chi
Delta Upsilon
Sigma Phi Epsilon

Out of 60-some IFC groups and 26 NPC groups, that is damn sad.

Of course, just because the national HQ lists that as a rule doesn't mean that it doesn't happen. But at least it's a start.
