Violating The Rules At A Private University

If you want to attend a private university, you have to play by their rules. Yes, you're paying for an education, but you're also leasing the school's reputation.

So if you go to a Christian college and act in porn, you shouldn't be surprised if the school asks you to leave.

  1. Apparently, searching for gay porn on the internet, then watching it enough times to make sure it's your classmate is cool, though.

  3. There was a similar brouhaha at conservative Baptist Baylor University a few years back. First it was when Playboy wanted to do a "Girls of the Southwest Conference" over 20 years ago when there was a Southwest Conference. More recently, the story was "Girls of the Big Twelve". But the difference between a private and a public university is that a private school gets to set their own rules for admission, administration and curriculum. That includes student behavior. There's not way a conservative Christian school will risk allowing it's trademark and brand to be used as a prop for porn. What's funny is how people get so worked up about this situation, but if someone misused a trademarked item such as a Coach handbag, Cocacola or other high profile brands, that entity could also sue for control of its image. If you accept admission to a private school, you get all the good and bad that goes with that. My daughter was offered a nice full ride at an all women's university up east. The idea of no men on campus was not something she was willing to accept-so she didn't go. Why do all these people seem to think rules only apply when it's easy?

  4. Probably stumbled upon it whilst using a search like, "how to get a position as a missionary".
