Re: Just read Liberty's rules...
 

You'd have more issues there than you think.

BJU is racially segregated and they dare to use the Bible to justify it. :rolleyes:

Good 'ole "BJ" was the butt of a LOT of satire by mainstream Christians of all denominations, esp in the '80s when a song called "We Don't Need No Color Code" hit the CCM airwaves and festivals.

Yeah, I heard that I would have a hard time dating my husband :rolleyes:

OMG, I just looked at that Liberty dress code and it is nuts. I know when my mom was in her clinicals she couldn't wear pants into the clinic, but that was about it - the Marquette "dress code" is like:

Women: Wear jeans or black pants with boots, some sort of preppy sweater, peacoat or north face

Men: Jeans or khakis, collared shirt, NBs or Docs, baseball hat optional

Re: Re: For those that attend religious/jesuit universities..
 

Well, i heard that the last time around, like 5 or 6 years ago, the girls were actually still students at Baylor and were asked to leave. Because of that, the only gals that posed for Baylor were ones that had already graduated. Not passing that as fact, that's just what i heard.

Didn't you guys just allow dancing on campus, like 10 years ago or something? ;)

This time around they were all current students and I don't know if they were asked to leave or not. The Sig Eps did not have to leave, so I'm not really sure. It was the biggest deal ever on campus next to the Shark guys trying to "free the bears" and the whole basketball player murder thing. Crazy Bears is right!! And yes, it was only like 8 years ago that dancing was allowed on campus. :D Can you believe how liberal those Baptists are becoming?!!! ;) Isn't the BU/TAMU annual massacre at Kyle Field West this year?

Pepperdine?
 

Pepperdine is a Church of Christ school same as David Lipscomb University, Freed Hardeman, and Harding.

It certainly is.

i hear there's talk of the Aggies making it a Maroon-out game. As there will probably be more maroon there than green and gold :D

What are Wesleyan universities? Like Kansas Wesleyan, Colorado Wesleyan, Dakota Wesleyan, etc?

Wesleyan schools are Methodist, named after the Methodist denomination founder, John Wesley.

Boston U started out as one of these, and later became non-sectarian as a whole, while their School of Theology maintained its Methodist heritage.

(I knew that comparative theology study would come in handy one day... :D )

Re: Pepperdine?
 

My bad...I must be thinking of another California University.

:)
 

NBD. :)
I was Church of Christ before I became Presbyterian. My family has been (and still is) C of C since the movement began in the 1800's...actually one side became C of C over 100 years ago because they were supposedly excommunicated from the Lutheran Church for getting drunk on the Communion wine :eek:, but that is a whole other story!

Also, strangely enough, Wesleyan University, of Middletown, Connecticut, is now non-denominational.

I went to a Southern Baptist women's college *insert shock and awe here*

- We had a dress code, though it was pretty lax for class. I woke up most mornings and was able to put on a sweatshirt and jeans and go to class. The dress code was more to teach you what was appropriate to wear to certain events and, of course, to keep everyone looking nice on days when the trustees would visit.

- We had to take 2 classes of religion -- old and new testament. I actually enjoyed these classes tremendously.

- We had mandatory chapel and cultural events each semester for which you received an one hour credit. You could choose to pass/fail chapel and only attend 70% of the activities.

- We did indeed have a moral code. I remember several girls being "asked" to leave due to pregnancy or homosexuality, neither of which was acceptable.

I'll try and think of some other things that could shock you people ;)

So what's so different about that and any other time they come to Waco? :rolleyes: I hate that game. :mad:

Aw.

OK, and i'm officially going to stop. Because i have no doubt that if i continue to give you a good-natured ribbing, the karma gods are going to catch on and our offensive bus will crash on the way to Waco and y'all will beat us.

I love Baylor :D

Is Liberty even accredited? Like BJU, I'd be surprised if it was.

Jerry Falwell runs it. Because a few kids from some grades before me went, they all sent us pamphlets about it, and called a few of us. Eek. That was scary.

The thing about the interracial dating at BJU...it's probably not required to have such a mandate, as a student who would go to such a reactionary school would probably not even consider interracial dating an option for them.
