Religious Colleges

[wildebeest]

To the topic: I went to a Christian high school, and that was more than enough for me. I don't need or want proverbs interspersed with my curriculum while I'm trying to gain subject-matter expertise, and don't think it's particularly useful to try to integrate religion into the teaching of non-adjacent subjects, at least for me. I'm fully capable of stacking specialized knowledge onto my values, and integrating the two if appropriate. 

I really enjoyed learning about world religions and taking classes on the history of Islam, but the classes I took examined religion from the outside, which is my preference. I don't want to be proselytized to while attempting to learn about, like, the multiple streams framework or punctuated equilibrium.

If others find value in that, that's cool too, but it isn't for me.
