Twenty-five thousand students attend the University of Texas at Arlington, but the president of an LGBT student organization on campus said the group has only six to 10 members.

"Most people are closeted, I feel, and some people in our group are still closeted as well," said 20-year-old Deanna Hodge, president of Homage, an LGBT support and educational group at UTA that meets weekly.
