FYI...

Bob Jones University generates some controversy as it is a 'White Only' Institution.

Media relations...speech & debate camp? What happened to hikes, fishing, archery, swimming, kayaking, campfires, sunburns, hoisting underware up the flagpole, sneaking out and chasing girls? How the world has changed :down: Have a great time anyway and hopefully there is some of the fun stuff too!

Which debate camp, James? I went to Kansas University (1980), University of Texas at Arlington (1981) and Baylor (1982). Don't let these yay-hoo's razz you...Debate camp was a blast...Smart chicks are still chicks... :up:

Not to mention I've made good friends here, wordly and unwordly. It really eliminates a lot of ideas you have about the campus just to come and spend time here...at least for me it has. Some of the people here, on all levels, say suprising things.

I did that for two years as a boy scout (cept the girls part). I do that kind of stuff with my dad during the summer (mostly white water rafting)

They have criminal justice though, trips to prisons and lessons in large guns I think.

I respect that you are using your summer to help your future. Anything that can give you an edge is worth looking at. I'd never heard of such a thing, but 2003 MIB was there about the time I would have been, so obviously I have no clue what is going on! Keep up the good work!

So are there some good internet sites that list the variety of summer camps available? I bet there is a flavor for everyone who is willing to plunk down some cash to attend.

Bob Jones U lifted their ban on interracial dating in 2003.

Here's an amusing article about it:

http://www.melvindurai.com/Bjones.htm

Hmm, I didn't need to have a note to date my Hispanic girlfriend in college, and that was 1974. Nice to see BJU catching up, though the note thing is retarded.

I bet ol' Bob wants to know the race of the guy to recieve a transfusion from his blood donation. Just mark mine 'whites only', like the water fountains and restrooms. I wonder if negro students need a note to date mixed race negroes.

Guess there must be a 'color bar graph' somewhere on campus.

MARAUDER RELATED(ISH) IS IN BOLD!!!

Ah, I'm back home...it's nice to take a real shower! Quickly, one of the counselors commented on the interracial dating thing. He said, that the Administration there is old school, but semester by semester, the rules get a tad more lax. In a decade or two, it won't be as bad...things just take time to phase out.

Ok, I had a GREAT trip. I'll post pictures if and when I get any and I'll bring video to Indy for anyone who is interested! Learned a lot about the media, was able to do live radio broadcasting and a recorded but not played TV broadcast. Saw a lot of things, met a lot of people. I made a few new friends that I will be keeping in touch with regularly, and I know quite a few people more. Mostly I hung out with Sur who is 18 (like sir) from somewhere just outside of Fort Worth, Texas...April (born in April like me) who is 16 from Rockville Virginia and John, 17, from somewhere in New Jersey. Both April and Sur will be staying next week for camps. I'm not, but I'll keep them company since they're stuck. Tomorrow I got special permission to take Sur off campus to stretch his legs, and tomorrow night I'm going to a movie with April and her mother who is in town. Throughout next week I'll stop by for dinner/lunch/breakfast...whatever I can manage.

April's mother just bought a 2004 Lincon Town Car (I forget which series.) Whoa is that thing nice! DVD where the dome light goes, heated REAR seats, Navigation, the cupholders in the rear arm rest are replaced by I think a compartment but most importantly the HVAC controls from your steeringwheel for the rear!!! It was HUGE inside! Is the wheel base extended? Because it was BIG! It was comfortable too! The rear cupholders are at the very front of the middle of the back seat. you just flop them out of the leather. I'd jack most of the stuff from there for a Marauder.




Here's how each day went:

5:30AM-My new friends Steven Sur and myself wake up to run on the track...we don't HAVE to wake up until 6:30, but we getting a head start on everyone, especially for showers. This is the only time (and we are the only students) allowed outside of the doorms without a counselor by ourside.
7:15 -Breakfast! It was ok...just cafeteria food.
8:00 -Chapel
8:45 -Room Clean-up
9:00 -Off to classes...different fun things were planned for the next 3 hours. A tour of the local newspaper, a news anchor from the NBC station came, ect.
12:00-Lunch
1:00 -Some of the fun things as mentioned at 9 are also done here until...
4:00 -Free time or campus tours. I used free time each time and went to the snack shop (a really really nice convenient store complete with pool table).
5:15 -Dinner
6:00 -Personal devotions...a little booklet that asks questions about Titus in the bible...you fill it out and ponder.
6:45 -More media camp activity
8:45 -More free time
9:45 Clean up and room devotions (counselor comes in and you and your roommates discuss what all has gone on)
10:30 -Lights out...you can talk as long as they don't hear you.

Do they allow tap shoes in the shower?

That's a great signature Patrick! I was googling over it the other night.

It's such a pity that when a picture is posted here on the website, the original path is changed so it appears it's always been a marauder.net picture. Because I'm a tad clueless. Saved By The Bell comes to mind, but something tells me that's wrong, but I'd rather guess it.

One more thing about the Town Car. When she pops the trunk, it rises up slowly, and the hinges are covered by a plastic guard. And it comes back down by itself and locks too!!!
