Pensacola Christian College
“You know, there are always pros and consAccounting
You know, there are always pros and cons to almost everything, and PCC is no exception. The teachers are pretty good but out of touch with the real world. The buildings and grounds are nice I will admit.
The biggest problem is that Dr. Horton's philosophy of how to run things is worse than Fidel Castro's is. If you don't agree with the smallest thing, you are branded a heretic, and the suck-ups are all over you for it. After I graduated, I had to literally readjust to the real world. Once I left PCC, it was so refreshing to have people trust me, care abotu me, not ignore me when my beliefs were SLIGHTLY different than theirs. What we as students were subject to may very well fit the description of borderline brain washing. That is best way I can describe it.
Since I have graduated, I am denied access to all alumni services because I wrote a letter to the administration with a few legitimate suggestions. The adminsitration called my employer to try to ruin my chances there. They even told my pastor to be careful of me since I may be a horrible influence on his church. All this because I didn't agree that the King James Version was the only version of the Bible ok to use.Sadly I cannot recommend this school to any one. Instead I would warn you to be very careful. If you do go, you will either come out a clone, or be hurt very much in the process.

“I'm thankful for the lasting friendships I've madeBrightEnglish
I'm thankful for the lasting friendships I've made with godly people at PCC. I grew not only academically as a result of PCC, but more importantly, I was able to become more deeply rooted in the Word of God.
It was nice to be able to walk from one end of the campus to the other and feel safe. I appreciate the strong emphasis on purity and Christian living.

“I will be honest, my 4 years atOther
I will be honest, my 4 years at Pensacola Christian College, were among the best years of my life. Although the rules are strict, the rewards are great. In comparison to friends who attended public college, I was much more prepared for the real world. Not to mention, I was equipped with more than knowledge--experience--which is the best teacher. One of the most difficult aspects to deal with is the safety net of protection in which children are able to stretch their wings without getting themselves into serious trouble. There was a time when that safety net of rules irritated me, but looking back I realize that the rules were for my good and created a character-building experience for which I will be thankful the rest of my life.
