I certainly can’t speak for everyone, but my friends who are out have been pretty happy at Amherst. It’s a very tolerant environment, and the 5 College consortium certainly opens up a lot of opportunities.

Beyond the dating scene, the Pride Alliance is very active on campus and GAPs are very popular social events. (GAP stands for Gay Amherst Party and occur often throughout the semester, usually the same weekend as TAPs – The Amherst Party – school-sponsored social events.)
