<p>Are they accepted, and are they prevalent?? Discuss.</p>
<p>Swarthmore's a VERY liberal campus. There are three different organizations relating to queer support groups or activism. One of the reasons I chose Swarthmore is so that I would be able to be open about my sexuality and be able to get involved with gay rights activism on campus.</p>
<p>So yes, gay people are at the very least tolerated and mostly accepted, and yes, there is a large queer community with many allies. :]</p>
<p>Oh dear...</p>
<p>Care to elaborate? :/</p>
<p>oh dear? you do realize that Swarthmore is UBER liberal and with that comes some of things that conservatives don't agree with....homosexuals being one of them. If you don't feel like you can deal with it don't go. I've visited and it's extremely open, some dorms even have signs that say "Queer Safe Zone" so there's no secrets.</p>
