Gay Fraternity Launches At IU
Sigma Phi Beta Expands To Bloomington Campus
BLOOMINGTON, Ind. -- Indiana University, home to one of the oldest and largest college fraternity systems in the country, is now also home to the first openly gay fraternity on its campus.
Sigma Phi Beta held its first initiation on campus Saturday, marking a milestone for the university and the organization, 6News' Rick Hightower reported.
The fraternity's national chapter began in 2005 at its home base at Arizona State University. IU is its first expansion. Fourteen students were initiated.

While this fact is laudable, unfortunately the 'reporter' uses this line: "Member Jeremy O'Neal said he's had low moments in his life attributed to his lifestyle. He believes the organization will aid students who have considered suicide."
