Bob Jones University

Several years ago a reporter called me for an interview. He initially told me the article he was working on was unusual careers, since I'm an actor he said my career fit in that description. I agreed to the interview and we met at a local coffee shop. I quickly discovered that this young, eager reporter was looking for me to bash BJU. I refused and excused myself from the interview. I have had many opportunities over the years to speak my mind publicly about BJU but have always declined. To be honest I enjoy forcing my opinion on others and I still haven't lost the thrill at seeing my name or picture in print or on tv. I refuse to speak on BJU because for me to be honest my comments would be negative and I do not feel that would accomplish anything except hurt people who for all their other faults have for the most part have been kind and gracious to me while a student and after. If you read the comments on this site you will find a wide array of opinions. The best way to discover for yourself if BJU is the place for you is to visit and talk with the many willing and friendly people on campus. Don't take the word of disiluisioned and bitter ex-students (myself included) as true for you. Remember, everyone is different and their path and experiences through life vary. Also don't judge BJU's English department on my submission.
