<p>There’s a college for Funeral Service!?</p>

<p>One of their [url=<a href=“http://www.gupton-jones.edu/Pages/curriculum.htm]classes[/url”>http://www.gupton-jones.edu/Pages/curriculum.htm]classes[/url</a>] - Computer in Funeral Service… Huh?</p>

<p>hm, almost as weird as Bob Jones U.</p>

<p>That’s about the most morbid thing i’ve ever seen. Still, someone’s got to do it.</p>

<p>OMG, look at its curriculum.</p>

<p>“The honorary Mortuary Science Fraternity represented at the College is Pi Sigma Eta”</p>

<p>…awesome</p>

<p>the frat house is a funeral home in front of a cemetary…i don’t really know but i wouldn’t doubt it</p>

<p>I’d imagine there’s a lot of “it’s the family business” applicants there. I can’t say I ever even thought about considering that line of work.</p>

<p>I really don’t know what is there to study there… And computer in Funeral Service? Huh.</p>

<p>How about this question on their application:
“I assisted in the preparation of [ blank ] bodies.”</p>

<p>Ewwww…</p>

<p>interesting…</p>

<p>seems like a pretty cool school. anyone applying? i am! hahaha</p>

<p>but no seriously, weird school.</p>

<p>You guys never heard of morturary science? Learning to embalm bodies and all those thing funeral homes do isn’t just something you learn on your own. Or maybe, it’s because I loved Six Feet Under.</p>

<p>LOL, i guess they really do have a college for everything! I actually have heard of morturary science as a major at other schools, but not one school dedicated to it. . . I guess that makes sense though.</p>

<p>I don’t think its really fair to call it weird…I mean, someone has to do it :)</p>

<p>Nontraditional, perhaps.</p>

<p>The weirdest school is Pensacola Christian College.</p>

<p>

</p>

<p>I went to a Christian high school, and all they ever talked about was going to that college. It was if they were being paid to recruit us there.
Turns out, its not even accredited.</p>

<p>AHHHH i don’t even want to enter the site… it looks too scary.</p>

<p>I think I spent AT LEAST 5 minutes laughing at pensacola’s description of the climate:</p>

<p>“”"In the summer it is hot. One can laze on the sand, let his eyes follow the shoreline, and be awed by the halo of white that reaches into the sky above the reflecting sands. Summer in Pensacola is real.</p>

<p>Fall does not rush down upon this region, but chooses for a time to walk unnoticed in step with summer. Then beginning in late September, mornings begin to awake to cool, whispered murmuring of the stately, longleaf pines; and soon sidewalks are laced with the results of those conversations. Fall comes to Pensacola as a welcomed friend.</p>

<p>Later come the crisp, biting north winds, plunging temperatures to below freezing several times a winter. But monotony never sets in. For here the sun always retains its strength and every cold snap yields to clear skies and warmer weather. Winter in Pensacola is change.</p>

<p>Spring in northwest Florida brings not just a renewal, but literally an explosion of life. Kissed by the sun and blessed by abundant water, plant life astounds the eye with its luxurious and rapid growth. Nature is kind in this temperate zone.“”"</p>

<hr>

<p>oh, and as far as funeral homes go - i used to work at one (front desk, no bodies). that was the SADDEST job ever.</p>

<p>“fall comes to pensacola as a welcomed friend.”</p>

<p>i’d love to see what happened if one day it became a ‘blatant enemy’.</p>

<p>In Pensacola:
The parking garages are seperated by gender.
Haha.</p>

<p>Oddly enough, the campus looks fairly good, and the dorm rooms are hella nicer than mine.</p>
