i attend lewis and clark college. i came here to play basketball and ended up getting kicked off, oh well. anywho to answer your question. the experience at lc has been a unique eye opening experience for me. i come from arizona where it is very plastic and clickish. there were a lot of frat boys and tan girls with implants, thats all i knew. when i first arived on the campus i remember seeing "hippy" kids running around the campus with their shoes off lol. seeing them play hacky sack in the lawns. playing ultimate freezbie in the lawns. i have never seen anything like this and have come to enjoy becuase i find that, for the most part, most of the kids here are being themselves. i will be the first to admit that there are a few imposter hippies around here though. there is a great sense of community on the campus since it is so small. the largest class ive had has been about 17 people. the teachers are all very passionate about what they do. every kid that i know is brilliant at lc, even the ones that play sports! i will admit that it is very academically challenging. ive busted my ass here and have only gotten a 3.0. the worst part about coming here would be if you lived in the dorms as it can be hard to find things to do or will end up doing the samething every weekend. but if your focus is school you will be alright right. im assuming you mean gay and lesbian community and transgender and stuff. it seems good to me. i know that there is a place below the cafeteria where there is a huge vagina for the womens shelter place. im know sure of what it is but its rather intimidating lol. the thing that is interesting about the gay people at lewis and clark is that they dont look like the gays that you see on tv. like the gay dudes here dont even look "gay". and yes i know that not all gay people look a like but where i come from there arent any gay people. the campus is beautiful all over. i must get back to finals now. you should come on a visit and i will show you around. im serious dont hesisitate. good luck
