<p>I come from a very conservative area of North Carolina and I was just wondering about Gay life at UNC :)</p>
<p>Students say it is very open and accepting.</p>
<p>Chapel Hill and the surrounding area are very liberal on gay issues. The mayor of Chapel Hill is openly gay.</p>
<p>As for gay life on campus, check out this conference being held this weekend on campus: [The</a> Southeast Regional Unity Conference - Home](<a href=“http://unityconference.webs.com/]The”>http://unityconference.webs.com/)</p>
<p>I think there are enough gay people at UNC for there to be a truly diverse social scene, with multiple different social circles, each with different interests/personalities, and with gay students very active in a number of different organizations, not just LGBT ones.</p>
