All of the previous posts sparked my interest.......its past 1am and I'm skimming the BJU website. I agree with all of you.......this place is nuts. It sounds like a cult. I understand having rules, but this is to the extreme. I know several people who went to private religious colleges. They had rules, but nothing this extreme.

So how does BJU prepare its students to function in the real world? I thought part of college - in addition to the academic part - was learning how to function independently as a adult. If you can't even pick the type of music you want to listen to in your dorm room, how on earth are you going to be able to make a decision in a corporate work environment. Do these students run to HR every time a coworker has the 'at work network' a bit too loud in their cube? Maybe this is why their graduates have such a hard time securing employment (as mentioned in a previous post).

I respect someone who wants to live their life this way, but at the same time, these students need to learn how to function in the real world.
