I went to Purdue for my undergrad, and I know there's an LGBT club on campus although it didn't seem that active. There's also a chapter of NOGLSTP on campus that has a couple grad students in it. Lafayette does have a small LGBT center as well, but all of this is nothing compared to what you'll find in a big city. As far as the campus goes, they're pretty accepting--the biomedical engineering department has an agender student and has helped sponsor their travel costs to conferences and whatnot. The students, for the most part, were more accepting than I was anticipating (I came from San Francisco originally) and my orientation was a non-issue. That being said, I only had one queer friend all 4 years being there, so visibility isn't that big. I dated someone not at Purdue (so did my other queer friend), so I can't comment on the dating prospects on campus. If you want nightlife though...just drive to Chicago. It's 2 hours and way more fun than anything Purdue has to offer. Links to groups I mentioned: http://www.purdue.edu/lgbtq/resources/ http://www.pridelafayette.org/
