ORU isn't a "bible college," btw. Neither is my own fully accredited alma mater, but you can bet your sweet bippy they don't engage in mainline foolishness so many Catholic schools have bought into.
Besides, I thought the "research university" didn't exist until Hegel. So why do Catholic universities have this need to be Hegelian?

Yes, there are many well-accredited Baptist colleges. The bible colleges are the ones which have most famously resisted liberalism, but several well-accredited ones have also, and certainly "bible college" does not equal "only AABC-accreditted".
There are also many excellent, very Christ-centered Catholic schools. I think there are a couple hundred Catholic colleges in the nation' this list includes many of the prominent ones, but there are certainly many others.
And there are many Calvinist, "Baptist" and Protestant schools which have lost their way: Duke, SMU, Boston University, Yale, Harvard, etc. My point was simply that faithfulness is not a function of denomination.
I did specifically refer to "bible colleges," because the name infers (if it doesn't actually denote) that the school's primary focus is on literalist (incorrectly termed "fundamentalist") ministerial studies. I agree ORU doesn't fit this mold. (Why would they hire Anita Hill?) And I also note that "bible colleges" necessarily offer many other disciplines.
Incidentally, as a Catholic, I have taken courses at Regent University's DC extension campus, and enjoyed them very much... but also know that outside of conservative religious and political circles, their degrees aren't worth all that much.
