Asking for sexual orientation in assigning roomates seems over-intrusive and unnecessary. Usually, it works out fine; there are a zillion factors other than sexual orientation that make roommates compatible or not. However, I am certain college housing offices are very familiar with gay-straight roommate situations where one or the other feels uncomfortable, and that these get resolved pretty quickly without much pushback.
