Thanks so much for sharing. It sounds like maybe Pepperdine has relaxed the CofC standards a bit in recent years? My daughter loves the unique options to fulfill the credits that you mentioned - hiking and yoga :). She would welcome some element of religious influence, as long as it’s in a way that isn’t “forcing” a belief system or placing overly restrictive social rules on the community. She’s fine with single-gender dorms and a dry campus, and would probably enjoy the encouragement of community created by small faith groups.
