I went to this school because it was the cheapest Missions (w/French) degree in Arkansas. It certainly challenged me and grew me. I am not nor was I ever CoC, but the difference in opinion certainly shaped my thought on the Bible. I enjoyed going to a university that actually did shelter me while I learned. I did not want to go to a 2nd public high school for college with all the partying and stupidity. I decided not to go with the social clubs and found many independently minded students who I loved being with. The rules can be weird at times, but it worked for me.

I met my best friends here, including my wife. There are students from all over the world here. The Missions program is good, but not excellent. Professor Monte Cox is really the best professor for missions, but other professors read lectures. The HUT campus is a great place for real world missions training as well. However, I felt as though the ideas were outdated to a certain extent with respect to current missiology.I am currently studying the online IB MBA with Harding to complement my philosophical-type degree with something practical. Harding's business school is very good though. The classes are very challenging. My wife has a business degree from Harding, and she makes way more than I do. I am always amazed at how much she knows about business.

Quite Bright
I LOVE Harding. Yes, there are negatives, no place is perfect. But at HU the (most of) the teachers really care about the students and want them to do well. The biggest complaints are about things like curfew, chapel attendance and other rules. As long as you know about these things and don't mind them, then Harding is great. Searcy IS a small town, but students get creative about planning things to do for fun. (Also, Little Rock is only 1 hour away and Memphis is only 2 hours.)

Not so bright
HU has many high ability students---students that could go anywhere. I think HU claims 60 National Merit Scholars, second only to Wheaton College among Christian institutions. I found it to be challenging and am seeing many of my friends being admitted to med-school and hired by the nations top accounting firms. I think I made a great choice and have made many terrific friends.
