Bob Jones University

Matthew August 28th, 2007

If you haven't been keeping up with "˜The Jones', BJU is an uber-conservative private college in Greenville, SC, established in 1927. Many unfounded rumors surround the school, but just the basic, undisputed facts are themselves laughable enough.

Exhibit A: BJU refused to enroll blacks until 1971 and until 2000 had rules forbidding interracial dating. Yikes. Talk about putting the "˜mental' in "˜fundamentalist.'

The school has gradually been pulling its collective head from its collective rear (unofficial motto: "ladies not required to wear hats to church services since 1990!"), but I'm not sure their latest radio ad is going to help matters any.
