How should I approach this guy?

I recently went to re-register for classes and there was a cute guy working there. My problem is that I am also a guy so I am kind of afraid to go up to him and ask him if he is gay, not only because I am shy but because in the front office area for the registrar is very small and there tends to be a lot of people waiting there. Also, I don't know if he would tell me the truth with his co-workers being right there. When I went the first time, he did look at me out of the corner of his eye when he would walk passed me but I was looking at him also so I don't know if he was looking at me because I was looking at him. Also, when he would call people to go in, he would usually tell them how to get to the room but when he called me, he actually walked me to the room himself. Could that mean something? And how should I approach him or should I have someone else talk to him for me? What could they say?

This is a very delicate situation. In my experience gay people tend to know who the other gay people are in the places they frequent so maybe if you know his name you could ask other friends what they know about him?
His taking the time to walk you to the room could definitely have meant something. I hate to tell you that you missed an opportunity by not asking him questions about himself so you could learn more information.
It's going to be sort of obvious if you keep going back into the registrar's office but if you can come up with a good enough excuse you could find a way to strike up a conversation and let him know you appreciated his help previously. It's not much but it's a start.
