There were out students even when I went there, in the late '60s.

I went to UMass Amherst for six years. Gorgeous area and never once had a problem being myself there. The four colleges surrounding it are likewise the same... Mount Holyoke, Smith, Hampshire and Amherst College. All places where it was strange if you weren't pro-gay. And I mean the same goes for every "clique" I can think of.
