<p>The first factor in the assessment is LGBT Policy Inclusion.</p>
<p>Two guys in my dorm in college were best friends. One was about 6’4" 220 and the other one was 5’9" and pudgy. While they were both drunk, the pudgy guy challenged the big guy to punch him in the face. The big guy obliged, several times. I’m sure that there was a written policy that that was not acceptable behavior. That didn’t stop the pudgy guy from getting about 30 stitches to close the wounds on his face. I was in school 30 years ago, but I’m sure that idiotic things still happen on college campuses, and having written policies won’t stop them.</p>
<p>I wish the OP and her son well. He may want to get a single or find a gay roommate, and from my experience, college is a lot more enjoyable once you find a group of friends.</p>
