This, I went to a pretty average college in the 00s and it really wasn’t something that needed to be made into a thing.

Sure, why not ask for that? Assuming it even exists any longer.

DC, a rising freshman at a midwestern college, isn’t sure about their sexuality - could be gay, bi, fluid. They’ve articulated that to family, but doesn’t know what to do about prospective roommates and classmates at college. Any advice? Should they ask for LGBTQIA friendly housing?
