Parts of the grounds are beautiful, and a couple of the buildings are great (or WERE great when I went there 20 years ago). But the dorms are hazards. Two decades ago there was a rumor going around that one particular dorm building was legally condemned, but they were getting around it on some technicality.

Doubt that was true, but it tells you the state it was in then that we believed it. Think of what it must be like now.

One time, I gave that driver tree fiddy.

When Scramblers was on N. Campbell we had a lot of accidents from nice, sweet older folks from the south side who wanted a nice breakfast for affordable prices and had zero awareness that Campbell had turned one way two miles behind them. People were constantly turning left from the right lane to get that good yum yum.

Just curious. Is it accredited? Do they put out useable professional degrees?

My favorite was Noel Smith, whom they named a dorm after, was a travelling preacher. He'd pack up his donkey and bring the word of the Lord to the masses. And apparently he didn't believe black people had a soul...

Jerry Falwell was a graduate and also (at the time) the only person censured.

The fallout moment was when they fired a beloved professor for the actions of some students at his church. They had a Christian rave. My wife went, she said it was super lame. That led to the freshman class (my class) having a 66% dropout rate.

One of the instructors was giving a message during chapel (3 days a week at like 9am). Can't remember the message exactly but he tried using interracial couples as an example of something that isn't commonly accepted. Oddly a friend on my floor was in an interracial relationship, he didn't take it well.

There's more, but the key to remember is that Christians are people too and people aren't perfect. The last one was a poorly presented example not a damning of the relationship. Now, he may have felt that way but that wasn't the message. Met my wife there, some of my best friends, and also some of the shittiest people. For every bad story I've got more funny ones that shows it as a college with students doing college things. Sure it's "indoctrination" but what do you expect going to a Bible college? I actually didn't do well because I challenged the beliefs using some of the critical thinking tools THEY gave me.

And thats how they treat the earth too, because they think "i am not of this world " ect ect ..... Me and brothers and sisters decided this when we where younger and got off that flaming train of Christianity.

And the students are pretty naughty too. I used to get multiple hits on POF and Tinder back in the day when I lived in sprimo.

Good ones gon bad haha 😄

Bitte

Care to share some?

I also thought it was abandoned! Until my husband and I were driving past it and I asked, "is this placed closed down? I never see people?" At that moment we saw all these young men in suits walking to a building. Very eerie to see. The whole campus besides them looked dead.

I don't know why I get downvoted for this idea. I think it's at least as feasible as an in-town rail system, and has all of the benefits of cars without the drawbacks. Just because nobody has ever done it doesn't mean we can't be the first.

Just graduated last year. Overall great school and community! It may not look pretty on the outside but it is vibrant, warm, and lively inside. Professors and leadership are great. The kindest people you’ll ever meet. I loved my time there! I wasn’t even there for the sports

oh, that's just all Baptist bible colleges.

Danke

Dennis place.

I heard that too. Sounded mutually advantageous for both cult and former cult sanctum.

Wheelhouse, people expect you to be working in there

Maybe one day

Ah but they would say you were in the wrong somehow, because something you were doing was causing your brother in Christ in stumble.

Source: former BBC student turned atheist in large part because of their bullshit. Also, that dude is probably a youth pastor somewhere now 🙄

NOT LGBTQIA+ friendly.

Woah, I had no idea. That’s really interesting

CBC was bought by the Korean based Good News Mission in 2019. It is most likely a cult and has been accused of the same tactics as the unification church.
