From College Confidential (posted by a student in 2016):

" I will also say a professor here whose daughter went to MHC says there’s a LUG trend here where people who shifted towards being “more gay than they thought they were” in their first year settle back closer to their original identity by the time they’re upperclassmen. I think also making women aware that there are others who may feel isolated and pushed away by the social life here (one of the most popular types of parties on campus are called titty parties and i think you can assume what goes on there)–that there are indeed other women who aren’t disgusted by parties with men–is important. I never found other people like me until literaly the last week and a half. I want people who are on here who are like me to know I am a resource from what in the first few weeks can feel like an overwhelming wave. Hell, the orientation presentations had multiple sketches implying basically everyone who goes here is not straight. I vividly remember feeling like I was the only straight person on campus after those were received with uproarious praise and applause."
