| Quite Bright | I spent $70,000 for a liberal arts degree. CBU cut the program I was in and just let us go. So I had to graduate with a crappy BA. Some of us had years into the program. They offered nothing or little help. So much for christians. CBU didn't even help the christians they screwed over. Hypocrites! If there is a hell may you rot in it. | Preparedness: F, Reputation: F |  | |

| Quite Bright | I have attended Cal Baptist for the past two years. As a degree completion program student, I have found my experience here to be exceptionally good. I have been reading the other posts and have been quite disappointed with the comments by students. I have had only one instructor that I didn't approve of and wrote to the department chair regarding him. I was contacted THAT DAY and was asked to come to his office for an interview. I felt my comments were taken seriously and that what I had to say mattered. I have not seen that instructor back at school since that time. I believe Cal Baptist is one of the finest schools in the area and am proud to have had the opportunity to attend. With instructors like Pat Kircher and Troy Hinrichs, I believe there are no better. They are the standard and are a fine example of the faculty. All my instructors have been appproachable and want only the best for their students. To those that have not had a good experience here, look at yourselves and examine your own conscience! I know how much work I have put into my Bachelor's Degree and the time I have spent studying. To me, it has been a most worthwhile experience and I am proud to say I attended California Baptist University! | Education Quality: A+, Campus Maintenance: F |  | | |

The School of Music at California Baptist University's only goal is to grow. As a result they have been forced to accept the very bottom of the barrel into the program. I am a Christian and at the start felt that I would benefit from a Christianity-based education. However, as the years have passed, I have come to realize that this University seems to be a degree farm rather than a University focused on learning.
I've heard comments from several Christian people who are attending and have attended secular universities that the secular environment helped them to secure their faith. Before you make the decision to attend this school, take a serious look at how the students at the school feel about it. Many students in the School of Music feel the faculty are simply not of high enough quality for the tuition; many of the performing groups are very amateur in nature; rehearsals are often not a place to learn, they are a place for University promotion. Many of the other departments at CBU are in better state than the School of Music. The business, christian studies, and liberal studies are popular with the students, among others. In many cases, your money is better spent elsewhere. | Faculty Accessibility: A, Education Quality: F |  | | |

If you have an alternate lifestyle, keep it quiet. Don't get into leadership, and stay out of the administration's eye. Don't do anything to get noticed. They will be watching.
However, the History department is good. There are only a few professors, but most of them really know their stuff. If you want to focus on American history, this is a great school to come to. They really encourage and build you up. However, if European history is your thing, go somewhere else.
Oh, and if missions is your thing, go here. If you are tired of being beat over head by people telling you to (A) not have sex or (B) go on a missions trip/dedicate your life to missions, don't go here. In addition, you will feel pressure to get married as soon as possible. I have heard faculty say you should get married young. Some faculty burst this bubble, occasionally, but its hard to realize there IS life outside of CBU. | Useful Schoolwork: A+, Individual Value: F |  | | |
