Palm Beach Atlantic University is a snooty, arrogant private school attempting to maintain Christian values in the name of over-priced tuition. The education I received there was nowhere near as fantastic as FAU. The people I met, well- let's just say I hope I never see them again. The majority of the population is white, close-minded, and often try to justify the pricey tuition (where I learned the hard way that the PRICE does not reflect educational VALUE) with "Christian" excuses, ie, "GOD needs your help," "Don't you want to live for God,", etc. Yes, other Christian colleges are strict, PBA, but what do they charge? Pensacola Christian College has A+++ facilities, countless activities, and a GREAT education for less than $6,000 a year (tuition, room and board). I went to PCC for a year, and left because, at the time, I was young and wanted to have fun without rules. Now that I have graduated from FAU, I appreciate the learning environment and discipline I learned at PCC, while saving money. However, I REGRET wasting MONEY at PBA. PBA's rules won't stop students from getting drunk. If you want to get drunk, it's a mere few blocks away. I used to stay out all night until 6 AM, so I could re-enter the dorms without being breathalyzed. The FIVE times that I WAS breathalyzed was when I HAD NOT even been drinking. Funny how they treated me as if I were drunk by speaking condescendingly and loudly.

The RA's (Becky, leader of the Bible thumping pack) and other student workers are robots. They belong at a stricter Christian college. Many of them even say that SMOKERS will go to hell (there is a notorious smoker's wall in the center of campus that the robots wish to, ironically, burn down). My roommate was often bombarded by them for not being "Christian", and would ask her if she was Muslim (she is of BRAZILIAN descent… hmm). But regular students? They are divided between Abercrombie rich kids claiming to be "holier than thou", poor kids struggling to get an education, and party kids.

The school will fine you for anything, but if you want information on anything in the security office, Kara Luffman will be happy to tell you anything from the security manager's affair, to who got caught doing what (did I mention pictures as well?!). And I mean ANYTHING- apparently being bound to confidentiality means nothing.

So, I have rambled. But overall, if you DO decide to go there, you should live off-campus, and have a scholarship. The education is NOT worth the price, the campus is SMALL, and they lack necessary facilities for all programs, except pharmacy. Also, beware of hypocrites. I have had more trouble and mental grief from hypocrites at this school than others I have attended. Students enjoy combing Clematis for drunks (while they DRINK), so that they may turn the other students in…

Oh, and even if you have a scholarship—beware. If you transfer schools, they will find a mysterious fee for $2,000 that wasn't covered (although you have had the same scholarship for TWO years with no problem), and not send you a receipt of payment…

My advice: GO SOMEWHERE WORTH THE PRICE!!! There are tons of colleges out there that have MORE facilities and opportunities and are MUCH CHEAPER!

Responses

(1) This response is clearly written in response to a personal problem with the school. It is not objective at all. So maybe your right. You were truly educated.

(2) I wonder if you truly know what PBAs posture towards drinking or smoking is. What you are saying is not what I hear when I talk with Dr. Searle, Eric Lowdermilk, or other administrators. They seem to have quite a biblical and blanced view of things. Who did you talk to that told you that 'smokers go to hell'? Certainly not PBA employees. (3) I don't think that PCC taught you to drink off campus until 5am. Or were these good habits you mentioned something else? (4) Care to report your GPA, your involvment, or anything else that would give you credibility?

To readers: think objectively when you read this. Ask yourself: Is this response is truly the product of reason or of emotional hurt? Is it what everyone experiences or just the select few who think they are the exception to the rules which they break. I wonder if years from now, this person will feel the same way about PBA…

I for one, have thoroughly enjoyed my PBA experience. I am better off for it.

Shutup, the school sucks, i party all day and night and maintained deans list in college. NORMAL UNIVERSITIES dont breathalyze you or drug test you randomly. WE ARE ADULTS MAKING OUR OWN DECISIONS GOING TO COLLEGE. that is what college is all about, kids experiencing life and going to school. i believe in god but hate people shoving religion in my face. And you want people who have sex to come forward??? HAHAH I and half others had many sexual partners and never came forward, smoked so much weed never came forward..and i have my MASTERS GRADUATED.God wants us to be happy, not be robots.

School can't receive NIH grants because of its discrimination and bigotry … what does that tell you? Ask them if humans and apes evolved from a common ancestor. LOL. "Let me ask the Holy Spirit."
