Bob Jones is only for people who want to be depressed and unsuccessful in your future career as…read morewell as in your faith. Bob Jones professes to be a place that "shapes heads, hearts and backbones for Christ", but in reality they do the exact opposite. The curriculum, the student-life, and the rules all rather shape heads and hearts against Christ. During my time at BJU, which only lasted one semester, a lot of problems quickly became apparent. BJU has terrible leadership who are ill equipped to handle real world problems. Aside from preaching "abstain from appearances of evil", and "no sex before marriage", the staff have no real advice of wisdom whatsoever. Also, the professors on campus are no exception. The professor I had for most of my classes during my semester was supposed to be teaching history. However, the primary subjects of most of our classes were sex, pornography, and the philosophies of heartbreak and romance. The professor went as far as describing different sizes of male genitals. When I approached my academic advisor with this concern, no changes were made. No one reached back out to me after I filed my complaint, no adjustments were made to the curriculum, and that professor is still teaching some if not all of the classes pertaining to my major. The other professors I had at the time left rude comments on my assignments evaluating my comprehension skills or my abilities to retain information that had been barely taught. I had one professor who watched YouTube videos of fish instead of teaching. This is the top rated, high quality Christian education you are paying almost $30,000 dollars a year for. Outside of professors, the campus itself has a lot of problems. The Dining Common is always closed, which led me to spending about $500 dollars on basic meals in one semester alone. This is while I am paying about $17,000 for room/board/food alone. The rules are another large, unspoken issue at BJU. Men and women being in any form of relationship outside of "godly brother/sisterhood" is extremely scorned. But this isn't what you'll see if you visit the campus on a tour or check their social media pages. The handbook permits side hugs only for photos. Photos which are constantly on their social medias, which gives the illusion of a far more relaxed environment than what it truly is. In reality, anyone can disrupt a couple having a meal together or taking a walk. I was unable to have dinners or sit next to my boyfriend without being approached and accused of touching or giving "the appearance of evil". The tours, website, and social media also give potential students a look into dorm life. They show you happy residents, gentle, loving, caring staff and supervision, and kind roommates. However, this is the exact opposite from the true situation. The supervision and RA's show no care or compassion about anyone other than themselves. If students come to them, they blow them off. Demerits are handed out for having lights on one minute past curfew. There is no exemptions for being out of your room past curfew, including having to use the bathroom or get out of bed for any reason. I have been given demerits for wearing jeans to church, by an RA wearing jeans at the same time. The dorm supervisor targets those who are in relationships, because relationships could give the appearance of evil. There are no second chances or consideration coming from any staff. If one roommate is to make an accusation about another, it is assumed true regardless of the opinions of anyone else. For example, my roommates accused me of stealing and ignoring them and I was kicked out of my room. The true story was in fact that I had never stolen from them, and they found the misplaced item the day after I moved out. However, all the dorm staff and supervision treated me as if I was a terrible Christian and not worth the time it may have taken to explain myself to them. I was given two days to move all of my possessions from one room to another with no help from them. Favoritism is an issue even outside of the dorms. The arts programs and your success are completely based on how well liked you are by the professors. During my time at BJU, students were shoved around and removed from roles or activities because the professors or other students in charge just didn't like them. If they weren't removed immediately, they were led on and played with until the last minute, when the professor then publically humiliated them. BJU is entirely based on popularity, favoritism, and treatment based on whoever is making the payments. Student life staff have called me personally a slut, whore, failure, and told me that I would amount to nothing in life because I disagreed with them on one subject. The subject being an aspect of my personal life which had nothing to do with my education, and I had not gotten it involved in any aspect of my on-campus life. in short dont go here is sucks ass

Our daughter visited several schools before deciding on Bob Jones University. Without a doubt, the…read morething that stood out was the personal attention from the staff. No other school came close to the concern and godliness of the staff. Some may reference rules, but honestly, most businesses have stricter rules for their staff. This is unashamedly a Christian school so not aligning with those values will have parents looking elsewhere. I don't think I would recommend any other institution more than this (and the cost is shockingly affordable.)

The university is named for Richard Furman, among the most important Baptist clergyman during the early decades of the new nation and an influential advocate of educational institutions throughout the country." Amy Grant and Victoria Jackson are both notable alumni of Furman. If you are in the Greenville, SC area, do visit the Furman campus! It's lovely!

I realize that the event planning for decor and the catering were both from an outside source, but the Center for Creative Arts space alone is gorgeous.

As you walk through the building to the main event space, you're able to enjoy the well designed gallery spaces and co-working spaces, too. It's a really pleasant experience.

However, over the past year, I've watched my son blossom in every way. He has learned so much and absolutely loves his teachers. Most days, he is excited to go to school and looks forward to seeing his friends. His speech has improved significantly, he knows his colors, and overall, he is thriving. One of the things I appreciate most about this school is the atmosphere--it's calm, happy, and well-organized. It's rare to walk in and see children crying or stressed, which is a stark contrast to other facilities I toured that often felt overcrowded and chaotic. Anytime we've had a concern, we've reached out via email and received a response within 24 hours. More importantly, issues are addressed promptly and thoughtfully. It's clear that this school is run by people who genuinely love children, and we feel incredibly grateful to have found such a nurturing environment for our son. If you're looking for a school where your child will be safe, loved, and encouraged to grow, I highly recommend this one!
