A new college reference book, The Advocate College Guide for LGBT Students, is the first to rate schools based solely on the opinions of LGBT students and faculty. The Guide looks at “schools’ policies, social organizations, support and healthcare resources, LGBT studies curricula, housing options, campus safety and general atmosphere for ‘out’ students and faculty.” (I was pleased to see my own alma mater, Wellesley College, listed in the top 100.)
If you have children approaching college age who are looking for a campus that supports their family’s LGBT culture or their own orientation or identity, you may want to pick up a copy.
