[QUOTE]Originally posted by Omega: [QB] [i]Church is a class there? Sounds like an easy A...[/i] Yeah, it's supposedly part of the original charter of the school. (Mind you, nobody seems to know where one might find a copy of that, but that's a different story.) Every student has to take a Bible class and go to chapel every day. MWF we have a twenty minute chapel and a standard fifty minute class of our choosing that generally counts for two credit-hours. Right now I'm in "Biblical Ethics", which is a requirement for my majors, and next semeter is "Chrisitian Evidences". TR we have University Bible, which is a class AND chapel, and lasts half an hour. There are actually questions on all the Bible finals from the UB lectures, but even the faculty teaching the lectures doesn't take that seriously. One guy put a misplaced "Z" in every correct answer. [i]Well, one could argue that if you don't attend enough of the lectures you'll fail the course. Simply because you'll have no idea what's going on when writing the exam.[/i] Such is the general principle. From what I gather, the official explanation is that the school feels some obligation to your parents to ensure that you get the education they're paying for. That's the same reason you're required to talk to your academic advisor every semester before registering for the next, and why you're required to declare a major after about two years. They want some record that, yes, we've been trying to help this guy. They can't make you learn, they can't make you graduate, but they can certainly make sure nobody thinks it's the school's fault in any way. :) [/QB][/QUOTE]
