I was told that my experience at BJEducation
I was told that my experience at BJ was representative of what was in the "real world". I was no more prepared to step outside of that bubble and live in the real world when I graduated than I was ready to drive the day I was born. I was taught to believe what I was told and that thinking throug an issue was not appropriate if it qestioned anything the school told me. I have had considerable personal struggle throughout my life because I was not prepared to handle day-to-day challenges of life.

Question
Try challenging yourself and attending a public collegeSuper BrilliantUndecided
Try challenging yourself and attending a public college - all the while practicing your Christian faith. You'll have a much stronger foundation for your faith than if you attend a mind-numbing college like BJU. At a public, non-christian college, you will find other christians practicing their faith BECAUSE THEY WANT TO, not because they are forced to. Instead of finding multitudes of "christian" students whose main goal is finding away around the rules, at a public college you'll find christian students who are eager to follow god's word and live honest lives. Anybody can act like a christian when the rules demand it, but only true christians know how to act when rules don't demand it!

Question
I never thought I would ever attend aBrightArt & Design Department
I never thought I would ever attend a Christian college but the Lord led me to Bob Jones University and it changed my life. I am not giving credit to just the University but also to the students they attract. I had two good roommates my freshmen year that gave me Godly counsel and encouraged me spiritually. I made my best friends while at BJU and still stay in contact with many of them today. BJU has stayed on their convictions for the past 80 years which speaks volumes to their leadership and God has blessed them. For those that speak negative of the university, it is a reflection of their walk with the Lord.
