1) No, we can't

2) No we aren't affected, yes it has been addressed.

Theoretically, APO has never banned homosexuals since prior to 1967, we required current or prior membership in scouting and a gay could have been a scout in his youth. Functionally, being an out homosexual prior to 1967 was fairly rare, so I don't think we dealt with it.

Since 1967, we have had our own admission policies, which were not tied to BSA's rules at all. At this point, I can name a few gay brothers of the fraternity.

Dave Emery, who is currently International Relations Chair, former Region X Director and former member @ large for service.
(Definitely out of the closet)

Malcolm Lee, currently Region III director.

Carson Kressley, one of the "queer eye for the straight guy" five.

Mike Marshall, one my two big brothers in Kappa Chapter.
