Lesbian sorority is formed at UCLA
Group also open to heterosexuals
The Associated Press
LOS ANGELES — UCLA's Lambda Delta Lambda is believed to be the nation's first sorority founded by lesbians, but the group's nine charter members say they started out to make friends, not history.
"When you meet someone from a sorority, it's almost like a built-in friendship," said Marci Kaye, one of
the group's founders. "We just wanted something like that that we could have, kind of a way for people to meet other people."
Officials of the sprawling University of California at Los Angeles campus in Westwood formally recognized Lambda Delta Lambda as a campus organization last week.
"It was very validating for us," said sorceress President Allison Adler.
University regulations forbid exclusion of heterosexuals who might want to join, and Krisi Burk, the group's spokesman, said that Lambda Delta Lambda hoped to sign up some heterosexual women during sorority rush week next month.
"If they're comfortable with us, they'll be comfortable with them." Burk said.
She said that several heterosexual women had inquired about joining and that the group hoped to at least double its membership next month.
"I hope people don't think our non-discriminatory policy is a paper policy because it's not," she said. "I have a lot of straight friends, and I'd like to see them all join."
Several Lambda Delta Lambda members said they had considered pledging traditional Greek sororites before forming their own. But they said that they were frightened away by stories of lesbian members who had been ostracized after their sexual preferences became known.
Burk said the sorority hoped to become more involved in political issues than most traditional Greek-letter organizations, including efforts on behalf of women, gays and minorities.
Doctor not looking for profit
Gesundheit Institute founder speaks about his free health care
By James Buckman
Kansan staff writer
Patch Adams is no ordinary doctor
The clown suit, fake nose and top hat he wore while speaking about medicine to students at the University of Kansas Medical Center testified to the Commission on Immunal health care he offers near Arlington, Va.
Adams, a general practitioner who wears his waist-length hair in a pony tail, is the founder of the Gesundheit Institute, which for 17 years has provided free health care to anyone who wants it.
The institute is now raising funds to build a 40-bed hospital that also will offer free care to patients.
hospital that also will enter after Adams, who now runs his hospital from his home, did a pediatric residency at Georgetown University at Washington, D.C.
"There were too many compromises in ethics, so I quit after the first year," he said.
He told the crowd of about 75 people that he and his staff cared deeply about their patients and weren't concerned only with their physical health.
"You don't define health as the absence of disease," he said. "You define it with a much grander vision."
Aamgs, who is in his early 40s, has provided free medical care from communes since he finished medical school. He travels around the country raising money to fund his institute, he said.
"Because I don't make a profit from the diseases that people have, I am really interested in people."
being healthy," he said.
Adams talked mostly about what he thought people desperately needed, like love, nutrition and faith. He mixed politics in with his medical philosophies.
He said part of man's responsibility was to take care of the land and to campaign for nuclear disarmament.
Dave Gillogly, first-year medical student from Ottawa, said that Adams' views were interesting but that he didn't agree with everything the doctor said.
"He had a lot of good things to say," he said. "I thoroughly disagree with his political views."
Gillogly said Adams was using his health care show as a platform to talk about political issues such as nuclear disarmament.
