UCR's History of Ground-Breaking LGBTQ+ Milestones
We made history as the first campus in California to have a professionally staffed LGBT resource office when our doors opened in 1993. In 1996, we became the first campus in California to offer an LGBT studies minor. In 2005, we were the first public university in the nation to offer a gender inclusive housing option to all students.
