Gay Friendly

<p>I'm only a sophomore now but I'm planning on looking into W&M next year as a possible college that I might be looking to go to. From students/parents/other's perspectives, how gay friendly is William&Mary?
Thanks in advance</p>

<p>very gay friendly, IMO. I remember one year I was there, a group sold shirts that said “gay? fine by me” on the front, and then got people to wear them on one day. The shirts were literally everywhere.</p>

<p>To see what soccerguy was referring to, check out Elizabeth’s latest blog post ([W&M</a> Blogs Making My Outfit Matter](<a href=“http://blogs.wm.edu/2011/03/24/making-my-outfit-matter/]W&M”>http://blogs.wm.edu/2011/03/24/making-my-outfit-matter/))</p>

<p>W&M is friendly to all types of different cultures, perspectives and lifestyles. There are several student organizations include the Lambda Alliance that act as special interest groups for LGBT students. W&M students also participated in the It Gets Better Project this past fall ([William</a> & Mary - W&M participates in ‘It Gets Better’ project](<a href=“http://www.wm.edu/news/stories/2010/it-gets-better-123.php]William”>W&M participates in 'It Gets Better' project | William & Mary)) and the Center for Student Diversity helps bring progarms and speakers to campus that represent gender and sexuality perspectives.</p>
