That's kind of like saying that since our population is 10% Asian or Mormon or whatever, that 10% of every chapter will have 10% of those groups. It just doesn't hold water. I mean, if there were any Mormons at Clarion period, they were hiding.
There are schools where groups "cluster" (BYU & Mormons being a basic example). I would guess that if you're gay and researching colleges, you're going to see if they have support groups, etc, and I would assume there are more gay people in general at those colleges. If a college is known for being on the intolerant side, unless it has a very special major that you can't find anywhere else, there probably won't be as many gay people there.
Don't get me wrong, I have no problem with gay brothers or sisters, but statistics don't tell the story either.
