Where I go to school, there has been at least one gay member that I know of in a different fraternity than mine. Personally, I would not have any problem with having a gay person in my fraternity. It is a good way to promote diversity, though that would not be the only reason for someone to join, obviously. There are brothers in my chapter and other fraternities, however, who would not even consider letting a gay person join. For instance, I was given crap when one time my girlfriend and a few of her friends came over to watch a movie, and one of the guys was gay. It is just stupid the excuses people give for not wanting to have a gay member join, such as the "I'm afraid he would hit on me" reason.
As for how reputations go, I couldn't care less how it would affect ours. We are a smaller house, so a lot of other houses don't know who we are, especially the sororities. By admitting a gay member, hopefully it could show others that we are not close-minded and bigoted like as many of the people are who come from my background.
