Well, where do I start. The people, there are nice down to earth people and there are very conceded people. Typically more conceded people are in sports, BUT their are definitely exceptions to this rule. My first year, I heard rumors galore. Did it make me mad? Yes. It prevented creating relationships horribly and people overlooked me for events and stuff that I tried to get involved with. As far as people having relationships with Christ, I can't judge the strength, because the fact that I'm not them. But I will say their are 35 denomination represented at TIU. So it goes from the very conservative views to very liberal views. So the flavor of what faith looks like is all different. But Luckily the Gospel is what everyone has in common in their faiths. But there are also people that are atheists or agnostic that attend. There reasoning, no clue. But since there is this perception that everyone is a Christian, people assume bad behaviors is what is expected out of Christians, but it's false. So this campus is diverse, find the right friends and you'll be good in that department. Classwork is at a decent pace, it can be faster, but with certain classes you need it to be easy. Professor are friendly, there are exceptions, but mainly approachable. And social life is what you make it, it can be boring or it can be fun. There are boring times, it happens. But be proactive and not a hermit and you'll be good.
