UCSB Gay Friendly?

<p>I'm probably going to end up going to UCSB for Graduate School and was just wondering how gay friendly the campus, community, night life is?</p>

<p>I don't have very high expectations in this regard, but any thoughts (especially from personal experience) would be helpful.</p>

<p>Are you serious? How could a large campus in California not be gay friendly? It’s practically a badge of honor.</p>

<p>Gee thanks, super helpful. Let me rephrase, gay friendly in terms of someone whose use to bay area status.</p>

<p>Oh, well, that’s a different story… can’t comment. UCLA would be much better, but I’ll bet you already knew that :)</p>

<p>It looks like Eucalyptus is the umbrella organization for gay students at UCSB. A quick search online yielded information about the UCSB Safe Zone Project, which aims to ensure that gay students feel welcome. You might try reaching out to some of the affiliated student groups in advance.</p>
