...leadership is only one of a set of circumstances that have coalesced in the last few years to make gay rights activism possible. "A lot of things came together at once," Michael G. Colantuono '83, a member of the GSA and the Committee on Houses and Undergraduate Life (CHUL) who proposed the non-discrimination policy, says. "We had some very strong leaders and a nucleus of 'very out,' politically-aware people and--starting this year--the issues." Schatz offers a third factor to explain both the extent of the movement and its ability to persist despite the intransigence and sometimes...
...pointing to a "policy" they had never mentioned before and that was not in writing anywhere, forbidding student organizations from including literature in the registration packet. The GSA lined up members of other student organizations who remembers having the privilege of including information in the packet to testify before CHUL, but to no avail. In a complex debate in a CHUL meeting packed with gay students, a faculty member introduced a motion to create a second registration packet to hold the literature of student groups, thereby avoiding confronting the real issue: Was the administration discriminating against gays by introducing such...

Nine of the 11 University faculties have adopted statements asserting that they do not discriminate against gays in employment policy and admissions, or permit companies that discriminate against gays to recruit on campus.

But Dean Fox, who chaired the CHUL debate and sat in on the Faculty Council debates, doubts that gay student politics will have a significant influence on Faculty of administration views of homosexuality. "People's attitudes around here are the product of many years of thought. And I don't think a period of student activism will...
...three Faculty members and the dean of students, met privately a dozen times this fall and issued a report in March suggesting two major reforms: the creation of a new student council with a $60,000 annual budget, and the division of the Committee on Houses and Undergraduate Life (CHUL) into two smaller student-Faculty committees...
