BJU is definitely a different place. I enjoyed my 4 years there because I was too young to know any better. As a young Christian I was looking to the school to help train me in a closer walk with Christ, to learn the great doctrines of the faith and meet lifelong Christian friends. The former was no-existent but the later was met.

My main problem with BJU is that they turned me (not realizing they had) into a Pharisee (i.e. a perfect hypocrite). They teach that if you do not dress right, listen to the correct music, wear the right clothes, speak the right way, have the date you were saved written in your Bible, attend the right church, watch the right movies, consume the right beverages, hang around the right people, then chances are you are not a Christian. BJU is a school of the past. Stuck hopelessly in the 40's and 50's not at all contemporary to the culture we live in. They will eventually just go away, as people like me (A devote follower of Christ) would never let my children attend this school. They are slowing loosing the next generation because they are stuck in the past, more consumed about "not compromising to this generation" than "becoming all things to all people that they may win some".

However, if you are already a fundamentalist and you need more training in your separatist ways than is the Dali Lama of all schools. You will ascend the ranks and be very happy.
