The faculty and quality of education is top-notch. It's not MIT, but it's close. It's a very challenging curriculum. For an engineering school, it has a remarkably strong "artsy-fartsy" curriculum as well, so if you're an engineer who wants a little literature in your life you will be right at home here.The big problem is with the non-faculty employees. The administration regularly cuts funding and fires key professors. And you're attending school with lots of homeschoolers—whose parents expect the university to keep close tabs on their kids. You may discover yourself under a lot stricter rules than you ever were at home, and may find yourself on the wrong end of a bureaucracy that has pretty much a blank check to discipline you without justification.How bad could that really be, at a Christian school? I thought the same thing. If I told you the scale of the abuse of authority that I saw, you would never believe me. Their skill at perverting the gospel to justify their own goals eclipses even the Pharisees. It is only a matter of time before this influence corrupts the students and faculty.
