Liberal arts colleges, known for their small size and focus on the humanities and social sciences, have a reputation for being more accepting and open-minded than larger universities. The high percentage of LGBTQ students at these institutions suggests that they are successfully fostering inclusive and welcoming cultures.

However, this is not to say that there is not room for improvement. While progress has been made in the acceptance and support of LGBTQ individuals, discrimination and prejudice still exist. It is important for liberal arts colleges to continue to prioritize diversity and inclusivity in order to create safe and supportive environments for all students.

This survey serves as a reminder that diversity and inclusivity should be valued and supported in all educational settings. It is the responsibility of institutions to create environments where all students feel accepted and able to succeed.
