This is a good guide.

My knowledge is a bit out of date, but in my time you had to avoid UC Santa Cruz. That was probably the worst of the UC's. Also avoid SF State and USF if you want to avoid political correctness. UCLA was in the news not too long ago because they were looking at everything as a microaggression. UCSD was in the news because they hired a diversity officer for $250k, to go along with the other diversity officers. They also got clobbered in a recent state court case where the judge overturned their decision in a sexual harassment case on the grounds that the student wasn't given due process. UCSB is the place where one of the feminist profs tore an anti abortion sign out of a student's hands and the provost then blamed the student. The prof was later charged and convicted in criminal court. The State U in Monterey is reportedly very politically correct. All of the public universities have to follow the affirmative consent requirements.

As for Santa Clara U, their website tells people to call 911 to report bias related incidents. USC is supposedly a rich kids school.

St. Mary's in Moraga might be a reasonable choice. If you're a conservative Catholic try Thomas Aquinas in Ojai. I haven't heard of any real problems at U of San Diego. San Diego State reportedly had some good departments as of a few years ago. As for the Claremont Colleges the least politically correct ones used to be Claremont McKenna and Harvey Mudd. I'm not sure of the situation there now.

Then there's also Boise State. (AKA U of California at Boise.)

This book might help It's called Choosing the Right College. This one is for the 2014-15 edition. I haven't seen the 2016 edition

Also if you go someplace other than Thomas Aquinas, try to find yourself a "rabbi"--a faculty member or adminstrator who is in tune with your beliefs and can help guide you through the maze. If someone is a member of the National Association of Scholars, that's some indication that he's likely to be sympathetic to your beliefs.
