I went to PCC because I thought it would keep me in line. I was very wild when I was younger and figured it would put me in my place.

I was so wrong.

For starters, PCC was fairly easy to get into. I had been on campus for maybe 2 days and realized I might have made a mistake.

First of all, I'm mixed, and kind of dark skinned and was treated horribly. I remember on one occasion I compared answers with a white student, and 90% of our answers were the same. She got a B+ and I got a D-.

I was not allowed to talk to a male friend of mine on the phone, my visits to my family were restricted, and any "non christian" music was forcefully removed from my ipod. That included songs by The Eagles, Led Zepelin, Van Halen, etc.

If I was caught listening to said "non christian" music on the radio, I recieved demerits.

My computer was constantly checked and I had to give my passwords for multiple sites.

If I tried to leave campus, I was assigned at least 3 "buddies" to accompany me and make sure I didn't get into "trouble". Even off campus, I wasn't allowed to do my hair the way I wanted, or wear any clothes I liked.

This school didn't seem to value me as a person. I was treated like a dog who had rolled in something disgusting, and was talked about, lied to, and rumours were made about me.

I didn't even get a good education to make up for it. With the daily church services, and being made to constantly walk across campus to change, or being called to the Dean of Women's office, I rarely had time to study.

They barge into your room unannounced and go through your stuff, giving you demerits and throwing away your stuff when they see fit. A shirt I had gotten for christmas that my little sister had made for me was torn to shreds right before my eyes and thrown into the bin.

I really hate this school, and would never send my children there. I have already told all my family and friends about the school and warned them. They all said they wouldn't go there.

To anyone who reads this before going to school, take this as advice: make sure you're white, easily brainwashed, skinny, and obedient. Or you'll be expelled for no reason whatsoever.

Is pcc that terrible?

Most of this is a lie. PCC isn't that bad.

I can see that you are deeply hurt. Offenses hit us all over and come from unexpected places. I am sorry your feelings were hurt. That is a fact. Naturalization. To be or not to be all things for all people. Standards. Your standards. His or her standards. God's standards. I do not like pork but my spouse does. It makes me want to puke. I do not even like to touch it. I have it in the frig for someone else. I touched it the other day to show myself it has no power over me. But then I washed my hands and used some tongs. I am sure you have standards; and some you will not break. Some young fellows I learned about were captured and enslaved. They were forced to learn things that were not up to their standards but they learned it anyway except when forced to participate in an act that would force them to sin against God. They refused and were imprisoned and sentenced to death. You can read the rest of the story for yourself. Temptations and testing; temptation arrives first and if we are not wise to it, we do it. We fall into the sin. Is it a temptation to sin against God? It is important to ask yourself and a holy person or it may appear that you are missing out or feel unfair when you like it or do not know any better and, and, and then it hurts later. It is easy when we do not recognize sin as sin. The LORD provides a way out of the temptation if we take it by saying yes to God and no to the sin. We cling to the strength we get from Christ the LORD God when we ask Him for help and then do everything in our power to make it happen. Then we give God the glory. Peel off those things from you that pollute you such as overeating, the voice of Satan, gossip, un-forgiveness, pride, disobedience, poor decisions, and if I am permitted to say so, I believe you need to carry a big eraser with you where ever you go to remind yourself to let go of any offenses. Learn when God is trying to correct you and fall into His loving care for you instead of murmuring against God.
Love,
Barbara Poe
