Bob Jones University

Thats just the res hall life. The dress code and general expectations are funny too.

Residence Hall Life

Residence Hall Life

A student must live in one of the University residence halls unless he is living with parents or other close relatives (approved by the Dean of Men's or Dean of Women's office), is 23 years old or older, is married and over the age of 20, or is a graduate student.

Freshmen may request a roommate. Other students are allowed one request for a friend to be in their prayer group, on their hall, or in their residence hall, but not in their room.

For the sake of accountability, students must "check out" when they leave the campus. Students gradually acquire more freedom in this area as they become upperclassmen.

Each night all students meet for prayer, either as a room or together with several other rooms.

Students are required to be in their own rooms and quiet at 11 pm. All lights must be out by midnight.

Students are required to keep their rooms clean and neat. Rooms are inspected daily.

Facilities and furnishings:

Laundry facilities are provided.

All rooms are furnished with twin-sized beds, dressers, desks, closets, cupboards, sink, telephone, and blinds.

Computer network and high-speed Internet access is available in each residence hall room.

An email account is provided for each student. Due to the flood of objectionable content coming through outside email services, students may use only this filtered campus email system.

All wireless access to the Internet is forbidden since all Internet use must go through the University's filtered access.

What to Bring

List of what to bring

Students may bring automobiles to campus. However, underclassmen (freshmen and sophomores) who are under 21 years old may use their vehicles only to drive home and for extension.

Cell phones are permitted. Students will be instructed in cell phone etiquette.

What Not to Bring

Posters of movie and music stars and fashion models are not permitted. The subjects of personal photos should exhibit the modesty and appropriate physical contact we expect from our students.

Music must be compatible with the University's music standards:

New Age, jazz, rock, and country music is not permitted.

Contemporary Christian music is not permitted (e.g., Michael W. Smith, Stephen Curtis Chapman, WOW Worship, and so forth).

Televisions and DVD/videocassette players are not permitted in the residence halls; computer DVD players may not be used to view movies.

You may not possess or play computer and video games rated T, M, or A or having elements of blood and gore, sensual or demonic themes, or featuring suggestive dress, bad language, or rock music.

Due to space considerations, appliances such as mini-refrigerators and microwaves are not permitted in residence hall rooms. A refrigerator for medical-related needs and microwaves are provided in each residence hall.

Residence hall students may not watch videos above a G rating when visiting homes in town and may not attend movie theaters.

All weapons must be turned in for storage. Trigger locks are required for pistols. Fireworks are not permitted on campus.

they can't listen to moderate christian rock but they can have pistols?
 
Going to a place called Bob Jones University is like putting your money in "Vinny's Bank", which is run out of the back of "Vinny's" Car.
 
ahha yesss im glad i could inspire this thread about this completely ridiculous college. It is retarded. Who goes there? Honestly? If you want a conservative college TO THE EXTREME, well then, this is your school
 
ok we both did, you started the thread, i mentioned BJU.. haha funny thats the acronym for this ultra conservative college...
 
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, we will not allow articles displaying their logos to be worn, carried, or displayed (even if covered or masked in some way).

haha
 
that sounds like hell, look at the lists of music, only strictly praise and worship music is permitted.im a christian,but damn that sounds horrible.
 
holy crap, i consider myself a pretty strong christian, but i couldn't last a week in that place without going crazy
 
who else thinks it would be awesome if u got a lot of people to have a huge orgy on the middle of campus
 
and the passion of the christ is rated R. sucks for them, not being able to experience christian media.

and i like how on the dress code page, it says no highlights, yet the picture right next to it has a girl who clearly has highlights.
 
that might be the funniest thing, that means about the only thing they can watch is toy story, march of the penguins(but that has some evlutionary elements so no theyc ant watch that either).oh yes they can also watch the land before time, maybe not actually. are there any non animated G rated movies? besides the rookie but that movie wasnt good at all
 
it says that at the beginning of the4 second semester the students go on a ski trip, that would be funny if somebody had ar5's witht he purple chick on them and used those, actually i bet they wouldnt allow any of seth's skis because the promote violence and anarchy, and the pistol on the seth pistols doesnt have a trigger lock which is anti bju.
 
haha, that would be funny. if you just look at the picture of the campus, without looking at the rules though, its a pretty sick campus
 
seems like sooner or later most of the students would just go insane. i bet breaking rules is like a sport to those kids.
 
No, those kids have to already be insane to want to go there. Extremest Cristian people who go there scare me.
 
yeah i knew about this for a while, me and my friends want to go on the weekend tour and dose everything with acid and then peace...that would be funny
 
i know someone that goes there. She is actually a normal ish person. But, COME ON. college is supposed to come with FREEDOM. wtf... and please. Christian music, is CHRISTIAN music whether its from a hymnol or contemporary christian. movies above G not permitted...2nd graders even thing G rated movies are dumb. wow, I bet you get kicked out if you swear, or use the lord's name in vein.
 
HAHAHA

AND

you need a chaperon in order to go on a date! HAHAHAHAHAHAAHA. 'no holding hands till your married'
 
this school seems like too much fun. i wish someone would make a documentary about schools like this.
 
this is an aweosm thread, somebody really should make a documentary about these coleges and oplay like horror music to it and really make it seem scary. i mean there in college, no movies rated above G, wtf?i would go crazy in there, i really could not do that. you wouldnt be able to watch ski movies because of the unGodly lyrics to the songs.
 
i live in Greenville SC during the summer months, which is were BJU is if you did nt know. Its riculous, its so obvious who goes there. they travel in like groups of 20 no matter were they go and they have that stupid dress code they have to go by even it there not on campus (24 hrs a day 365 days a year). Its like they feel unsafe in "outside world" The campus looks like a small prison with fences and gaurds walking around its insane. the thing that sucks is they have so much pull in this city its ridiculous. They have had certain movies, bands, and other things like that baned from ever coming here. ill drive by one day at take some pics and post them.
 
Loyalty to Christ results in separated living. Dishonesty, lewdness, sensual behavior, adultery, homosexuality, sexual perversion of any kind, pornography, illegal use of drugs, and drunkenness all are clearly condemned by God's Word and prohibited here. Further, we believe that biblical principles preclude gambling, dancing, and the beverage use of alcohol.

bwahahahahahahah
 
shit, imagine going to bob jones jr. hight, bob jones academy AND bob jones university. 10 years.
 
a girl from my high school goes there now. apparently they JUST allowed interracial dating and were just recently accredited. HAHAH
