Several members of the University of Wyoming Kappa Kappa Gamma chapter have appealed a federal court decision dismissing their lawsuit challenging the admission of a biological male into their sorority.
The lawsuit, first filed in March, involves the acceptance of Artemis Langford, a man who identifies as a woman, as a member of the all-female sorority in 2022. It alleges Kappa Kappa Gamma violated its own bylaws, which say members must be women.
“In order for our society and the law to function, words have meaning,” May Mailman, a lawyer with the Independent Women’s Law Center, told The College Fix this month.
