Because it'd be really weird if we're seeing each other every day and not knowing it.

I'm applying there, if that counts - and APU. And Pepperdine.
Oh yeah, shotgun application method. :grin:

Well, maybe this is out of place, but check my sig for bad news for both of you...

To answer your question, though, no I'm not going to Biola or any Christian college... I thought my sig was relevent.

Speaking of APU, I live across the street from the main campus, and Biola and APU are like bitter rivals. Hahahaha!

I'm surprised someone here would be at Biola... Biola is one of the more conservative christian colleges... I thought things like anime and games were sorta frowned at there...

I don't go to Biola, but I had friend that went there. She certainly wasn't into anime, but I think she had a roomate that did and watched Inuyasha. I remember because she was talking about the whole 'demon' thing bothering her, and the roomate trying to explain that the Japanese definition isn't the same. Yeah I dunno, but it would be cool if you did find someone else who goes there.

There's an anime club, actually. In fact, the first meeting of the year is tonight, so I'll see what that's like.

And by the by, Biola just got maximum re-creditation.

Well, that's cool then. As for the accredidation thing, I said eventually... Right now the only thing that's going to happen is students will lose their state funds like cal grants and any state scholarships...

Dang...that really put a damper on my top 2 schools.

Will this be up to vote? Cause last time Ahnold tried something like this the people responded in force. But do you think the people will vote for something that helps Christianity? Not really popular... especially in California.

Like i said, dang...

Well, Maybe petitions can be started among students at APU, Life, Biola, Master's College, SCU (or whatever it's called now), and any other Christian schools in California... I would think the students would want to fight for their own rights... Students and alumni and future students... Cal Grant can mean the difference between getting school and not getting school for a lot of people...

If that happed, though, there would be all sorts of, to use internet terminology, trolls at the schools... People would try to go to them just to cause a mess... It's allready happened... Then someone would step in and sue the schools... Like allready happened with California Lutheran High School in riverside county. There were two lesbians that sued the school for expelling them for having an ACTIVE sexual lifestyle they were very open about with students. Sexual activity of ANY kind was against the school's rules and would have resulted in expulsion, but this was singled out as illegal discrimination because of their orientation. This is a war, even if people don't realize it.

Getting back on topic.I think it is rather interesting ironic that Dave MacPherson who is probably one of the most famous Post-tribbers in the country is a graduate of Biola.
