1. Yet no rules about high cholesterol diets.

Maybe they should update that.

[DS1]

2. No wonder they're all so angry

Shit, if I had to spend my college years like that, I'd be up in a clock-tower too!

[Ishoutandscream2]

6. LOL!!!

Naughty, naughty!

Really, what the hell is this "fine" stuff? Making students pay fines like common criminals, or professional athletes for that matter. My brother went to a Baptist college, and while there were some rather harsh rules, there were never any fines. Unreal.

3. Nothing about marijuana!

I am switching schools :woohoo:

[BlooInBloo]

14. "Illegal drugs" doesn't count?

[nam78_two]

17. Ah -missed it!

Tut-sounded like such a cool place and all.....

[Zenlitened]

4. "* Entering entryway of opposite sex on campus or allowing the same"

:rofl:

[firefox_fan]

[Cha]

8. Ye gods!

How frightening!

[snappyturtle]

9. What a fun place!

:sarcasm: Narrow minds enter; narrower minds graduate....I bet these students can't play well with others (outside of fellow students) when they leave. You really have to wonder "why" all the rules?

[Vanje]

10. At Liberty University, students can only spend the night with ....

At Liberty University, students can only spend the night, share a dorm, get a motel room, with members of the same sex.

Cool

[WildEyedLiberal]

11. They equate rape with consensual sex.

Is it any wonder that religious wackjobs think of women as their property?

Color me disgusted...

[Straight Shooter]

12. Involvement with witchcraft, séances or other occult activities

Makes me wonder if some of the more enterprising students had enough and finally put a hex on Fartwell.

[HiFructosePronSyrup]

13. "entering the space above ceiling tiles"

I wonder about the story behind that.

[Spinzonner]

15. It's interesting what some of the violations

are which have an equivalent penal consequence and, one would assume, therefore an equivalent moral weight.

[kimmylavin]

16. Wow, do they care...

I find it disturbing that unlike most other colleges that would put a student who displayed "life-threatening behavior" to "oneself" on suicide watch, this fine institute of learning would kick them off campus and probably out of school.

Very compassionate.

[BuyingThyme]

18. Do they get to choose one of each?

[w13rd0]

19. "immorality"...

...is considered to be on equal footing, as a violation, as an abortion, academic cheating, witchcraft, unauthorized possession of a weapon (what are autorized uses? shooting homosexuals and abortion doctors?). Do they define "immortality"? Seems pretty nebulous considering all the other rules, or is that their catch all? Or just a substitute for saying "homosexuality"?
