Westenbroek v. Kappa Kappa Gamma Fraternity

Artemis Langford is a transgender woman whose acceptance into the University of Wyoming chapter of Kappa Kappa Gamma garnered a lawsuit, Westenbroek v. Kappa Kappa Gamma Fraternity ultimately dismissed, to ban her from being a member. She was the first openly transgender woman to join a Wyoming sorority, and six or seven sisters in the chapter sought to have her banned based on the definition of a woman, which a judge found not to be in the sorority's bylaws.

The suit was originally filed without disclosing the sisters' names, but a ruling required them to refile under their names. Langford remained identified by a pseudonym that misgendered her.

Langford was raised Mormon and diagnosed as autistic along her journey to eventually identify as transgender. She currently identifies as Episcopalian. , Langford intends to remain part of the sorority.

Some alumnae organizers and donors supported the chapter's lawsuit. It appears, however, that their actions were contrary to the policies of the national sorority's governing board, which later expelled two long-serving alumnae volunteers who had used the sorority's member database to solicit donations to help pay for the Wyoming lawsuit. These women had also been cited in media interviews.
