There is no religious leadership. There is no harmony between the low culture of chapel and the high culture of many humanities professors. - student

TWU has become increasingly liberal over the years. While some of the rules need to be reexamined, the school as a whole has lost its vision. TWU has a huge opportunity in raising up Godly Christian leaders. However, have we been successful in fulfilling all that God is calling us to be? Students need to be more aware of what they believe, why they believe it, and why God has called them to this school. - student

“Maybe. There is a lot more in common between faculty and programs that we think. We’ve been trained in t he Snider era–he was a such a community man. Dr. Raymond brings more cohesion and structure–putting the two ends together. I feel that TWU is moving together in a good way to settle those two tensions.” -Andrea Bonilla, Student Ministries

There are some areas of the university where faith is pushed upon us. Some of the courses emphasize faith when really they should be trying to maintain a focus on other things–it hasn’t been balanced enough. Being in the classes and surrounded by many very conservative Christians has led me in the direction of not wanting to be affiliated with the title of being a “Christian” - student

I believe the student body is becoming biblically illiterate and I fear for the future of TWU as a Christian institution. - student

“I think the move to bring Academics and Student Life together has been really beneficial. Dr. Jameson and Bob Woodward have gone out of there way to inform us during meetings and I feel very welcome. I mean, there is always a rockiness when we go through transition into a new place, but that is inevitable.” -Rob Rhea, Student Ministries

TWU provides an open place for people to discuss religion, to ask questions, and to be challenged not just academically but with who they are, who they are becoming, and what they believe. I appreciate that students are never told what to believe, but are consistently challenged to question, seek truth, make their faith their own. - student

61% of students consider TWU’s beliefs to be conservative or very conservative
