I had a very hard time at Gordon. Most of the students and professors are close-minded idiots and made me feel bad about not being a completely stream lined christian. Just because I believe that people that are homosexual are ok, and because I believe in evolution that makes me a bad christian and a bad person.

There is no social life. A very select group of kids have parties off campus (this is like 50 people max) and everything else is about spirituality, faith, or athletics. I'm not saying the people are not friendly and if you are take the Bible literally and would consider yourself a streamlined christian (not saying thats a bad thing) then you will fit right in. But there is very little room for being an individual. Think church school only with math and some sports.

The point is I thought that I was a crazy christian before I came here. I didn't want to drink or party very much but I thought it would happen at least a little bit. I'm going to transfer only because I think that I am not challenged to be an individual or free thinking person here.
