“Tufts is super gay.”

Heh, I like that. I can’t speak for others, but from what I observed, it hardly seemed like a gay student could find a more accepting school than Tufts. “Accepting” almost seems like a misnomer; people are “accepting” of gays in the same way that they’re “accepting” of people who prefer mittens to gloves.

There also isn’t really just one gay community. Every social group has gay people in it. Gay kids tend congregate in certain discrete communities, like the Rainbow House, the activist scene, or the theater community, but being gay doesn’t pre-determine your friends, social life or interests at all.
