Bob Jones is in South Carolina, not NC. It’s Davidson College.

Thanks!

DAvidson College

Davidson College is a private liberal arts college in Davidson, North Carolina. The college has graduated 23 Rhodes Scholars and is consistently ranked in the top ten liberal arts colleges in the country by U.S. News and World Report magazine.[1]

Both the town and college were named after Brigadier General William Lee Davidson, a Revolutionary War commander. The land for the college came from General Davidson’s estate, a large portion of which was donated by his son. The college was established by Presbyterians in 1837 and maintains a loose affiliation with that denomination. According to its Statement of Purpose, “the ties that bind the college to its Presbyterian heritage . . . have remained close and strong” but the dedication of the college “extends beyond the Christian community to the whole of humanity and necessarily includes openness to and respect for the world’s various religious traditions.”[2] Majors are offered in over twenty fields, as are several minors and self-designed interdisciplinary options.

...

According to The Princeton Review, Davidson is ranked among the top twenty colleges nationally for the following categories:

“Best Overall Academic Experience For Undergraduates,”

“Professors Get High Marks (#1),”

“Professors Make Themselves Accessible (#16),”

“Students Study the Most(#10),”

“School Runs Like Butter (#4),

” “Town-Gown Relations are Great (#3),”

“Easiest Campus to Get Around (#3),” and

“Best Quality of Life (#16).” [3]

It’s no wonder the LEFT want them unprotected.
