Additional Information

LGBT members of the UCI Law community feel pretty comfortable being out. As we are a small community, students, faculty, and administrators are very supportive of our students and their activities. OutLaw events and speakers are well attended by everyone, and students feel comfortable bringing up an LGBT perspective in different courses. While Orange County is historically more conservative than LA or the Bay area, UCI and the law school in particular provide a welcoming, supportive environment for all of our students.
