Women Pack Tenth Circuit Courtroom and Rally to Save Sisterhood:
Yesterday, Independent Women's Law Center led oral arguments before the Tenth Circuit Court of Appeals, on behalf of six women who were robbed of the sisterhood that their sorority promised them. The case, Westenbroek et al v. Kappa Kappa Gamma , challenges that the forced admission of a male member violates the sorority's bylaws, which provide that "a new member shall be a woman."
At the court, the plaintiffs were welcomed by a large supportive crowd cheering them on. Present were sorority women from several National Panhellenic Conference organizations, including Kappa Kappa Gamma, Delta Gamma, Kappa Alpha Theta, Alpha Chi Omega, Gamma Phi Beta, Chi Omega, Kappa Delta, and Phi Mu, and women's advocacy groups from across the political aisle, including Women's Declaration International USA (WDI, USA) and Women's Liberation Front (WoLF). Following oral arguments, a "Save Sisterhood" press conference took placed before network cameras and reporters.
