I wonder how much political pressure the Bush administration placed on the school to make these changes. His apearance at this school showed me all I really needed to know about George Bush's character.

I have run into people from Bob Jones or those from the "Bob Jones" culture. I would not call them saints.

Don't let Bob Jones fool you. Remember that the school was founded by a Ku Klux Klansman from Alabama.

At Least We Know About Bob Jones.....

As bad as they seem to be, according to what the University teaches, the only thing worse, are the doznes (if not hundreds) of schools that preach that same mentality, but won't admit it.

I'd rather deal with a Skinhead, who wears his feelings and ideals on his sleeve, than the 'skin-and-grin' white co-worker who talks about me behind my back.

 

[HORNETSWARM]

I agree.
