The Advocate College Guide for LGBT Students lists Oberlin as having ~60 members in its Lambda Union group. Wesleyan is not included in the book (not sure why).</p>
<p>Someone told me that Wesleyan was a leading LGBT school but I guess they are wrong.</p>
<p>
I'm sure many LGBT students would feel at home at Wesleyan. For detailed information, see Wesleyan's profile at Campus Climate Index. It scored 4/5 stars and did reasonably well in the subcategories.</p>
<p>LGBT-Friendly</a> Campus Climate Index - National Assessment Tool</p>
<p>Also read these blurbs: LGBT</a> life at Wesleyan and LGBT</a> life at Oberlin</p>
<p>.</p>
<p>OMFG... i swear to god i was just about to ask what LGBT was...
but then i was watching "The Real World: Brooklyn" and then some girl was like i think I'm the only LGBT person here and on the screen it showed what the acronym meant... THAT WAS NUTS!!!!</p>
<p>Doers anyone know which other LACs besides Wesleyan and Oberlin have large LGBT populations relative to the the size of the school?</p>
<p>Swarthmore.</p>
<p>Is this question for reference 1980collegegrad?</p>
<p>I'm not sure about raw numbers, but when I think about LACs well-known for accepting and welcoming gay students, I think of Amherst, Bryn Mawr, Carleton, Haverford, Kenyon, Lawrence, Macalester, Oberlin, Pomona, Reed, Smith, Swarthmore, Vassar, Wellesley, Wesleyan, Williams</p>
<p>Pitzer is also very accepting of gay students.</p>
<p>Swarthmore and Haverford are clearly in the burbs. And boring burbs at that.</p>
<p>Lake Forest (right outside Chicago, but easily accessible by commuter train) is a vastly underrated school.</p>
<p>In Ohio–Denison and Ohio Wesleyan, as well as Wittenberg, come to mind.</p>
<p>Boston College? Also, Brown feels like a LAC and it’s in Providence, which is relatively urban (although it is technically a university).</p>
<p>Pomona is in Claremont. Occidental is in Eagle Rock. Both are decidedly suburban.</p>
<p>Barnard (NYC, women only)
Eugene Lang (NYC)
Macalester (St. Paul)
Colorado College (Colorado Springs)
Rhodes (Memphis)</p>

<p>haha can someone update some more please i’m applying this fall! Btw eugene lang’s location is absolutely ideal</p>
<p>
</p>
<p>You can get that at some universities also. </p>
<p>UChicago core classes are capped at 20. Nice to see Unalove back in the saddle.</p>
<p>Some more:</p>
<p>College of Charleston
Agnes Scott (Decatur, GA - Atlanta)
Rollins (Winter Park, FL - Orlando)
Butler (Indianapolis)
Emerson (Boston)
Trinity (Hartford)
St. John (Annapolis)
Goucher (Baltimore)
Reed; Lewis & Clark (Portland)</p>
<p>Reed College in Portland
Trinity College in Hartford, CT</p>
<p>Maybe also Claremont schools, especially Pomona and Pitzer. They aren’t exactly in an urban area, but they’re a short drive from downtown LA.</p>
<p>Other easy commute schools into a big city</p>
<p>Sarah Lawrence outside of NYC
Wheaton College half way between Providence and Boston
Mills College (if you are female) outside of San Francisco</p>
