How accepting are the Ivies?

<p>Yale’s divinity school doesn’t have much impact on undergrad life.</p>

<p>I will say that any of these schools–and many others–may be a culture shock to any student who has grown up in an environment that is not very diverse. With respect to religion in particular, if you have gone to a Christian high school and live in a community in which most people share similar beliefs, you are going to find the situation to be very different at many colleges and universities. In many ways it’s a good thing to have that broadening experience, but it can be disorienting when you find yourself around people who strongly disagree with things that you and those around you have always taken as a given.</p>

<p>Philovitist, that article from Christianity Today is not bad. I do think that some of the Christians quoted overstate the supposedly harsh environment and the “diamonds on black velvet” contrast, which is not too surprising.</p>
