IMHO a test should be if the Christian college gets a lot of federal money, which comes with strings attached.

“IMHO a test should be if the Christian college gets a lot of federal money, which comes with strings attached.”

The Federal money aspect is huge. If a college takes a penny, it will have to compromise.

Bob Jones University refuses Federal money — at least it used to. Two of my brothers, and some cousins, went there in the ‘70s, and got good educations. My friend’s daughter graduated from BJU and went on to pilot Poseidon planes for the Navy — now an instructor.

My brother works at Houghton College in western NY — Wesleyan Methodist. Some preacher relatives went there in the ‘50s and ‘60s. It had been sliding into modernism for a while, but last I heard the new President was getting it back on track. The campus is stunningly beautiful. (Trivia: Deborah Birx went there.)

Grove City in PA is supposed to be good, but I don’t know if that’s because of the Christian aspect, or conservative political thing.

John MacArthur’s “The Master’s University” in CA is supposed to be good. If MacArthur runs it, it probably is.

Liberty probably is OK. It used to be, anyhow.

Anyhow, FWIW...
