Not to put a damper on your break or anything, but remember that city-wide crack in the earth that Berkeley was built on top of? Well, cautionary reports about the Hayward Fault getting set to throw a seismic shit-fit just about any year now have galvanized our usually ponderous bureaucracies to get their acts together and provide us with some emergency plans in case we were to, you know, fall into that crack and die. read more »
As reported by the Daily Cal yesterday, a certain fraternity is out of the closet and trying to get into the Council. The Interfraternity Council.
Sigma Epsilon Omega, UC Berkeley’s “only” gay fraternity, is currently a student organization, but it’s seeking to make it official in the IFC. Wait a minute…aren’t all fraternities a little gay already? You know, with those polished wooden paddles and the elephant walk of new pledges?
Maybe they’re just not fabulous enough.
Travis Garcia, founder of SEO, says the fraternity is open to all interested members:
“We will not discriminate against anyone, gay or straight,” he said. “If someone who is straight feels they would be a good match for the fraternity, they will be considered like everyone else.”
We’re all for making Greek life even gayer. Just imagine: dudes actually getting into a frat party. Oh yes, that night will come.
So now that the boys have their party a-rollin’, where are our ladies? We can see it already, those famed pillow fights. With lesbians. Hold on, we might just need to change our underwear.
