Most LGBT Friendly UC?

I’d like to add that the LGBT vibe in san diego is very strong, with huge gay pride and a great LGBT friendly district (hillcrest). The explanation for the prop 8 numbers can be found in the strong military presence in south bay (30 minutes south of UCSD, I rarely have a reason to go down there) that traditionally votes anti LGBT (although this is starting to change), the catholic immigrant population, and the wealthy, “old-money” in La Jolla. It’s that last group that would be the biggest influence on an LGBT individual, but I’ve found that on campus and the surrounding areas UCSD is very LGBT friendly, with a beautiful LGBT center and really open people. Most colleges in California tend to swing liberal and LGBT friendly, and that trend only increases every day. You would feel comfortable at most if not all the campuses, but I’d put UCB, UCLA, UCSD, and UCSC near the top of the list
