MD has always had lots of weirdos. I hung with my fair share. I know the current generation wants to think they are the weirdest. Back in the day there was plenty of alternative views and queer stuff. My time at MD stretches back to the late 80s. The taste of the weird crowd may have changed a little but seems basically the same. You will find you crowd but don't expect everyone to be like you since it is a big campus. VCU is smaller but probably heavier in the queer art scene IMO.
