gay life at Cornell

<p>It seems like a lot of other schools have current students go on the 2012 facebook groups and start a thread (stanford, yale, columbia, etc), but no luck on Cornell's page yet. I just wanted to know, how is it? Do LGBT people on campus feel like they have stick to themselves to "fit in"? Or is the general attitude around campus accepting?</p>

<p>this campus is incredibly liberal...you should have no concerns whatsoever</p>

<p>I don't think it is a problem either. You can find gay students all over campus in a multitude of social settings -- from fraternity houses to the vegan co-ops. A gay roommate of mine purposely stayed away from the more established 'gay scene', just because (as on a lot of campuses, it seems) he found it mostly filled with graduate students trying to prey on undergrads. That said, every student's experience is different, and there's a pretty strong support network of peer and professional counselors on campus.</p>

<p>I also would say that Cornellians are going to be a bit more... passive... towards sexuality issues than a place like Columbia or Yale. I don't think you will find a student at Cornell claiming to have aborted herself multiple times over the last year in the name of art... that Yalie is crazy.</p>

<p>okay, that's good to know. I don't think I would put myself into the "gay scene" either. I'm not as open about my sexuality as those people are. So even in frats, frat parties (or whatever the main party/social scene at Cornell), people are pretty open-minded?</p>
