    Default Bob Jones University?

    I don't know if their rules changed but in the past there was their hilarious rule.

    The male and female students had to be seated separately and the female students' button shirts have to be where their bras/breasts cannot be visible sideways.

    With all the choices out there, why would anyone send their kid to a Bob Jones Univesity?

    Ask people like Ted Cruz's father.

    BTW I find it hilarious that people here would complain about the "liberal indoctrination centers" while not being aware of the indoctrination going on in those Christian colleges/universities.

    They are aware. They just prefer (perceived) right-wing indoctrination to (perceived) left-wing indoctrination.

    Nobody as far as I know.

    The point is those type of people would send their children to schools like that. Rafael Cruz sent Ted to a Christian school.

    Radio personality Randi Rhodes once commented how the G.W. Bush administration was chock full of appointees to various posts a'la Bob Jones University...yeah, that worked out well!

    Not at the university level. He went to Princeton and Harvard. I don't think Cruz's father is a good example of "those type of people."

    To continue their Christian programming.

    Good point. I need better examples. When I say "those type of people" I mean the far right Fundies.

    I assume most of the people employed at Creation Science Museum, Noah's Ark Experience, and Jesus Land Theme Park are graduates of the illustrious Bob Jones University.

    I expect they had their reasons........which are none of your concern.....at the very least I expect the BJU graduates know how to spell university.....
