A student jumping in any time must be a hassle on those poor professors. And did you read the student testimonials? Love how they all just have initials and no real names...Wonder why? :) And man. I wish I could go to school for that cheap. And I also wonder what the accelerated Bible studies course is like...Haha I’ll have to admit.

Glad my alma mater doesn’t have a similar clause.

I guess because "he's a man, baby". I like how the webmaster is a volunteer, but he goes under the “Faculty” section, not the “Volunteers” section ( http://www.gcbi.org/faculty.html ).

Apparently "perspective" students have to agree to hold to the 1611 version of the King James Bible as God's ONLY Word in English for the rest of their lives. "Coast Bible Institute desires students who hold a firm conviction on the King James Bible (AV 1611). When we become aware of a graduate of our school who no longer believes that the King James Bible is the ONLY infallible, inerrant, Word of God in English, we will promptly REVOKE any degrees bestowed to that student from our school. We do not wish for any such person to be known to hold a degree from GCBI. Perspective students are made aware of this clause before enrolling in our school. The alumnus will be notified and asked to provide a reason for changing his position on the King James Bible, before we administer this clause."

As someone who is currently putting a great deal of work, time, and money into earning a terminal degree I do tend to find honorary degrees pretty offensive. Love how they keep mentioning tapes. Honestly, who listens to them these days? Also, love the classy shadow fonts they use. If there's one thing I appreciate about my IFB alma mater (besides being the #1 reason I'm no longer a fundamentalist) is that it was at least accredited. That's a lot more than I can say about basement Bible colleges like GCBI... I can’t believe I’m saying this, but I actually do AGREE with them on the honorary degree thing.
