     A symptom of the willful ignorance that exists as a blight on our nation. Option 4 as well.

That a school with Biblical principles is denied accreditation is just another sign of the vicious persecution of Christians in the US.

Abercrombie & Fitch and its subsidiary Hollister have shown an unusual degree of antagonism to the name of Christ and an unusual display of wickedness in their promotions. In protest, articles displaying their logos are not acceptable to be worn, carried, or displayed (even if covered or masked in some way).

Good. I hate Hollister and Abercrombie. They are for poor people who want to be preps.

Are Polo, Lacoste, and Vineyard Vines allowed?

Wow, you guys have vinyard vines in the Carolinas? I thought it was just a Memphis thing. Polo and Lacoste = for blacks, btw.

Personally, I prefer public universities.  I'm not a big fan of most of there attempts to micromanage student's lives.  Some of there programs, however, are quite good.

If you could remove the curriculum from the environment, it would be perhaps the best of both worlds.

The microwave ban is probably because of the wiring in the residence halls.  Incidentally, the wildest girl I ever met when I was a student at Clemson was an ex-BJU student.  Definitely a candidate for a GGW video if that had been around back then.

I should add that BJU is accredited by the Council for Higher Education Accreditation.

I'm not sure why anyone would want to go there, but since admittance/enrollment is voluntary, I support their right to exist.
If Mississippi State were to decide to enact any of these policies, however, I (and everyone else) would riot.

More normal colleges also generally won't allow you to have firearms on campus.

It serves a distinct purpose.  Plainly, a genuine university education would make no impression on those who attend Bob Jones, so why not quarantine them and stop them from annoying their would-be classmates?  It's when they obtain positions of influence that they become problematic.

Judging from the list of materials deemed illicit, they've re-written Ephesians 2 - "for it is by works you have been saved..."

Having reviewed their home school history curriculum, ignorance is too kind a word.  Call it malevolent ignorance....
