While there as a student the rules were not a problem for me or my spouse. During those days conservatism was in for dress and politics. After the first few years out, we still highly regarded BJU. But, today the standards at BJU, both academically and in dress have dramatically changed for the worse. The semesters have been cut down by several weeks a year - a tragic mistake and forsaking the permanent on the altar of the immediate. Sit down dinners are gone, the cultural aspect of learning manners at the meal table is sorely needed today in our anti-cultural culture. The dormitories are loosely run - again, lax standards to please the spoiled occupants.

BJU plays to the rich crowd and big city churches - and needs to, to keep themselves afloat with the massive overhead in costs to keep the campus going. There are some normal/average students there - some.

Our training seemed more than adequate at the time of graduation. However, MUCH was to be desired for the practical, day-to-day issues were not dealt with. The opressive attitudes toward pastors in churches and their daily challenges was never divulged as we were painted a rosy picture of the ministry for the most part. Problem solving, admitting to faults, dealing with people - were all non-existent. Perhaps that is because the Joneses don't know how to do that themselves.

We also highly esteemed the University and the Joneses as students. However, life and most of all, maturity, opened our eyes to the cultic allegiance we were trained to have for our "Dr. Bob" and whatever he said, was the height of Truth and wisdom. Sadly, many our age and well beyond our years still maintain the total til death do us part allegiance to BJU and the Joneses - no matter what they do. They feed on the attention and obedience of their facutly, staff and graduates. We have spent many years shedding the callousness and pharisaical attitudes ingrained in us by the Joneses and many of the Faculty and Staff. Without question, many of the Faculty were awesome folks and fantastic people - but almost all are blindly loyal to "Dr. Bob." We have, through time, seen the hypocrisy and total arrogance of the Joneses to uphold their positions as Truth only to turn from the very same teachings and deny them for the sake of politicians and public perception. Don't cross them OR disagree with them - YOU WILL be castigated and villified!

Our children will not be attending - thankfully - nor those we know around us and away from us here. Thankfully we have been delivered from the control of a domineering, caustic, hateful and spiritually immature Jones family who manipulates people through threats, villifies them in letters and in pulpits!
