I transferred into Bob Jones University after 3 semesters at another school and graduated in 2004 with a B.S. in Criminal Justice. I was very impressed with the academics and faculty of the school. As with most BJU students, there were some aspects of student life that I did not care for (ie strict rules), but I enjoyed my time there. The faculty do not get paid as much as in most schools; they teach there because they love the school and they love to teach. The academic standards, at least in my program, were very high; all material and assignments were relevant to my area of study. My GPA at BJU was 3.3 out of 4 and I studied an average of 10-12 hours per week. After graduating from BJU, I enrolled in a "difficult" program at a state school in the area and finished after three semesters. My GPA at that school was a 3.8 and I studied 2-3 hours per week.

In addition to the school itself, the area around BJU has many opportunities available for students. Greenville, SC has a mild climate and is one of the fastest growing areas in the nation. There are many part time job opportunities available for students to work through college.

If you are a disciplined student who wants a real education with a biblical perspective, go to Bob Jones. If you want to party at a diploma mill, look elsewhere.

Is "If you want to party at a diploma mill, look elsewhere" a portion of talking points given to the BJU-believers "asked" to participate in these rviews?
