I enjoyed my collegiate experience at ETBU. Many of the people who posted negative experiences about the University had issues with the policies based on the bias that it was a CHRISTIAN University enforcing those policies. If you want to drink, get drunk, have sex, look at pornography, do drugs, defame property, act the fool, all on campus then you probably will not appreciate this University. If you are looking for a University that acts as an accountability partner to help you invest your money and time wisely in an expensively private education then you will appreciate ETBU.

I have heard some students complain that ETBU doesn't allow them to act like adults. I have yet to work for an employer that will allow their employees to drink, have sex, look at pornography, or do drugs, all while working on the job. I HAVE worked for many secular employers that have turned down applicants who act the fool with drinking, drug use, pornography, and provocative behavior in photos on public profiles MySpace and Facebook profiles.

So for me, ETBU treats all of it's students like adults. Just like many of the people I have worked for over the years. In fact ETBU does a pretty good job preparing students to be adults in the real world.

Maybe some of the students who argue about the school policies haven't really matured to adulthood in order to understand this just yet.

Don't believe the negative hype. ETBU is legit. Be careful what some of these cats are claiming about the University. Faculty, Staff, dorm staff and administration are good people who genuinely care for students.
