I'm bored here at work on Saturday so I figured this would keep me busy and pass the time…assuming anyone actually reads these. I attended PCC for the fall semester of 1997. The main reason I attended is because I came from a private Christian school background and a lot of my friends enrolled at PCC, so I joined them. Everyone talks about the ridiculous rules at PCC. Anything you've heard or read is an understatement. My first day there, I went to meat my best friend in the upstairs room at the student lounge, The Commons I think it was called. As I headed up the stairs a girl was coming down. She stopped and just stared at me. She asked, "What are you doing?" I replied, "I'm going upstairs to meet my friend." She said, "Oh ok. But these are the girl's stairs. The boys stairs are over there. It's ok. I won't tell on you this time." Really? Seperate stairs for guys and girls? In a brightly lit area with dozens of students and faculty running around, what could possibly happen? God forbid a girl and a guy walk on the same stairs. Later on in my stay, the song "Fly" by Sugar Ray was big at the time. Two guys were walking down the sidewalk on campus singing the song with their arms out in a flying motion. A faculty member saw this and they were punished for it. When I arrived I had a walkman and tapes of the Christian group Acappella. They had to be put into storage until I left because I wasn't allowed to listen to it. Really? You know, I can see them taking away secular music, and could even see them taking away Christian rap or hard rock. But Acappella? The purest form of music, voices only, the instruments God gave us at birth, singing about Godly things, and I couldn't listen to it? I know this was 14 years ago, so I'm sure things have gotten worse. But the one post I read on here is right. People need to at least have the opportunity to make their own choices, whether good or bad, and learn from their mistakes or successes. 99% of the people at PCC come from private Christian schools. So these are all people who grew up in a bubble and think they are going to college to get a taste of being an "adult", away from home and parents. When really they are just moving to a bigger bubble. But how does living in a bubble and proctecting yourself from any secular influences help someone? It doesn't. Even Jesus Christ himself sat and broke bread with the Pharisees. To be effective in the ministry, I think it is necessary to know who you are ministering to and what they go through…their problems, struggles, weaknesses, etc. I'm not saying that to be good in the ministry one has to have used alcohol and drugs, had random sex, been involved in gangs, etc. I'm just saying one of the most effective ministers in history was the apostle Paul who had a horrific past. Being forced into and being kept in a bubble only hurts kids. It seems to me that people I know who attended public schools and universities grow up to be more well-adjusted and successful than those coming out of private Christian education. So basically, I'm coming to this point. If you come from a private Christian school background and are looking to stay in the bubble and be told what to do, when to do it, where to go, when to go, how to speak, how to act, how to dress, how to think…then go to PCC. If you want to go into the ministry or continue in the ministry, go to PCC. And there is nothing wrong wit that at all. The world needs more and better missionaries, teachers, and preachers. But if you plan on any other job in the secular workforce, save yourself the money, time, and frustration and go to a public college or university.
