As others have stated, BJU is only a comfortable place if you are fundamentalist, dispensational Baptist. Certainly there is very little toleration for any other legitimate interpretation of the Bible. The students, in general, are unable to think outside their prescribed box, and are intolerant an unfriendly to anyone not an independent, fundamentalist Baptist. (Some from Bible churches are not given a hard time, but only as long as their Bible church is Baptist in everything but name). I was repeatedly attacked verbally for my Reformed beliefs and given no opportunity to even explain in a calm, nonargumentative manner why I might believe something different from the establishment. The dorms generally involve themselves in private student matters more than can be justified by Scripture, and I frequently encountered blatantly unscriptural practices: i.e judging others (on an official level) by their works rather than taking the time to get to know their spirit in matters; encouraging students to "turn each other in" and harassment of a students by dorm administration based on second and even third hand evidence with the accused not even being allowed to see his or her accuser or find out the accusation. The dormitory student leadership system was terrible; students were often able to get ahead simply by "ratting out" other students or groveling to existing student leaders or administration.

The faculty are, for the most part, very nice, knowledgable and helpful. The education I got there was quite adequate. However, forced extracurricular activites detracted from the ability to concentrate on education. I would never go there again, nor would I recommend it to anyone. Even those from the "proper" background would not find there a chance to learn to think for themselves, solidify what they believe by studying it for themselves or learn to live in the real world as a responsible adult. Many BJU graduates do live in the real world as adults just find: But that is mainly due to their parents and good education and experience before they get to the college, not what they learn while there.
