Pensacola Christian College

I am currently a student. i have transferred from a different college, and am quite used to college life. PCC, although having excellent academics, must realize that there is more to the college life than the work. it is about growing, finding your own thoughts, and being able to grow your relationships with other people, in and out of the classroom. PLEASE NOTE: no student is allowed to go home for thanksgiving, and there is NO, i repeat NO, spring break. yeah, that threw me for a loop too!!! it's like they expect us not to have a social life outside of campus. also, something hard to find, pcc is not accredited. depending on your vocation, it may be difficult to find a job. this institution does need a great deal of work, although it does have a good foundation. Overall, they need to lighten up on the rules, continue in ther excellent education, and become accredited. we are not allowed to have our own convictgions about anything, but are rather forced to accept pcc's, or at least pretend to.

Education Quality: A+, Individual Value: F

PCC is not for everyone, but I think it is a excellent place to get a good education and grow spirtualy.The rules are tough, but most of them have good reasons behind them. I have made it through nearly four years there and have never been close to getting kicked out. If you follow the rules you will have no problems, if you can't take the rules, go somewhere else.

While attending PCC I became involved in many ministries. I got to know quite a few faculty and staff members. In general I found the students and staff to be quite genuine.

Thus, I take umbrage at the Oct. 3 reviewer's ranting and reprimanding review. The individual said something to the effect that "if you don't like it there then leave."

I stayed & completed my work and yet I do concur with many of the negative comments about the institution. I may not like how they are presented, but the emotion of a comment does not negate it's merit.

If PCC could glean one truth from all they read here, it is: Please stop trying to be God for every person on campus. This behavior creates spiritual and moral cripples.

It's like telling a child who is just learning to walk, "Do not stand up, you will fall down. Let me carry you, I can walk much better. I am experienced."

Unfortunately with so many sermons being fed into young minds saying things such as, "If you're not happy here you you have a spiritual problem." or "If you leave you'll never find peace with God." one's thinking can become conflicted and cloudy.

I would much rather hear sermons saying, "If you are not sure this is the place for you, then take it to God and let Him guide you. Speak to your pastor and your parents too."

This is not what one will hear at PCC, but it would be a very honorable and wise thing to do.
PCC, do as Gideon did. Take those the Lord's choses. It's not always about numbers.
