I knew about the interracial-dating ban that Bob Jones University used to have — they ended it in 2000 — but I’d never seen the actual rule in the handbook until yesterday:

Darrell at Stuff Fundies Like points out the significance of the picture:
Sometimes it takes actually seeing things written down to make them “real” to those of us who weren’t actually at the school when this policy was in effect. I know that’s the case for me. I read this handbook from 1995-96 and literally felt like I needed to throw up.
Me too…
It’s amazing how many decades after our country passed the Civil Rights Act of 1964 it took for BJU to come around to racial equality.
I know they hate when we draw parallels, but Christian schools across the country say the same thing about homosexual relationships now.
How long will it be before most Christians are as ashamed of their current stance on gay rights as they are looking at that handbook with the interracial ban?
