My plan of action, both in high school and undergrad, was always to find the drama groups on campus and hang out on their fringes; drama clubs are full of Our People (queer, smart, geeky, offbeat). You don't even have to be an actor(/director/stagehand/whatever)! You can just be friends with all of them. :)
It also might be worthwhile to check out student literary magazines and writing clubs, that sort of thing. Some of those can be a little too srs-bizness publication-focused wacko, yeah, but some of them are more laid-back and hobby-oriented. (If you're lucky.)
Plan B: come to Connecticut and drink with dorky English students?
(We have a lot of LGBT-oriented activities during orientation, too. I'm psyched as hell, since I didn't have much chance to participate in the equivalent groups in college. But it sucks that you have to worry about queer-in-a-heterosexual-relationship acceptance.)
