#Bob Jones Academy

[wutbju]

Bob Jones Academy was formed in 1927 because Bob Jones, Jr. had just graduated from middle school, and Bob Sr. worried he would embarrass him.

But let’s go with BJU’s story.

Born simultaneously in 1927 with Bob Jones University, Bob Jones Academy also is celebrating its fortieth anniversary this year. This fully standardized secondary school offers grades 7 through 12; annually enrolls more than 400 students from every section of the nation and several foreign countries, making it one of the larger private Christian high schools in America.

Since the first graduating class of five, more than 2,000 young people have completed work at the Academy. Each year a large percentage of the Academy graduates enter Bob Jones University; this past year over 70 per cent enrolled in the university. Many of the others entered fields of study not available at BJU such as engineering, medicine, law, nursing, etc.

For some reason, BJU refuses to ever acknowledge Eunice Hutto Morecraft’s legal name. Bob Jones, Sr. married her and her husband, and Fannie Mae sang “O Promise Me” at the ceremony.

The late Eunice Hutto was the first principal. In 1937 Mrs. Paul Brown became the principal of the Academy and served in this capacity for 28 years. She became a member of the staff while still a student in Bob Jones College during the early days of the school in Florida.

Morecraft died suddenly in 1947 in St. Louis when she was visiting there for medical care.

The death certificate gives more explanation:

Her son was eight months old.

After teaching in the science department and serving as assistant to the dean of women. Mrs. Brown assumed the responsibility of the administration of the Academy. It was through her leadership that the Academy was able to maintain the cultural, academic, and spiritual emphasis needed to meet the needs of the ever-increasing student body. Because of ill health, she was forced to retire in May of 1964. She died September 12, 1964.

Upon Mrs. Brown's retirement, Gene Fisher, a member of the Academy history faculty, was named principal. Under his leadership the Academy has continued its task of training young people to live in the problem world of today.

The Academy has a college preparatory curriculum designed to fully qualify a student to enter college. Every student is required to take Bible each semester he is enrolled. Seven levels of Bible are offered, and the students may take the course in which they are best qualified.

Aside from the books and studies, students have many opportunities to participate in a wide variety of extracurricular activities with youngsters of their own age and interests.

They conduct their own literary societies, the Inter-Society Council, student-body activities, intramural athletic programs, and debate organizations. Other organizations offer the students opportunities to gain a broader knowledge of the activities in which professional people are involved.

Expenses for the Academy are the same as those for the university. Music, speech, and art are available without additional cost above regular academic fees.

been doing a lot of work that is functionally genealogy to power map several catholic developer dynasties who have been a historical anti-abortion base here. this is parallel to, but separate from, the story of the urban-based catholic organized opposition to integration (busing) as the foundation of organized opposition to abortion. this peripheral story is extremely useful from an organizing perspective: five families whose names we see plastered over every construction site in the city, and they’re all on the boards of anti-abortion nonprofits? trying to decide what our city is gonna be like from out there in grand ledge, st. john’s, dewitt? easy.

in the parallel, internal story, what we look for is a name attached first to anti-busing then to anti-abortion— that’s the formula, and michigan perfected it. (in 1970 we amended our constitution to ban state funding for religious schools—parochiaid, our catholics’ lost cause; in august 1971 the klan blew up ten school buses in my hometown pontiac michigan; in summer 1972 the state supreme court overturned our worst abortion criminalization law, but on november 7 our liberalization ballot measure failed, and on that same day lansing voters recalled the pro-busing school board.) i know you’ve heard this from me lots of times, but i like to keep saying it in different ways. the idea is that soon everyone is going to know this is how it went.

I have mixed feelings about the stock narrative about the anti-abortion movement being delivered from brown v board—it’s true, but i don’t think people are thinking about how it is true, and what it looks like. it very quickly became something people say. there’s a tendency to collapse this story with the debate about whether to focus on evangelicals or catholics— too simple, names too few names, not asking people to think enough. makes people less able to see where catholics and evangelicals collaborate, which is the elision that keeps making americans stupid.

anyway if you’re doing this work in a city anything like mine or bigger: i promise you have a CPC that’s been there since the late seventies, or at least you can find evidence of ones that old, and with a little bit of work you can pin a public segregationist on them. easy easy and an easy pill to swallow. you got it.

but that’s not what i’m going find about these rural catholics whose opposition to integration looked like enforcing a wide periphery—they were not mobilizing themselves around sites of integration because they were not at risk of being visited by integration. these guys just sat it out until the eighties, taught their men to care about social services in public, let the urban irish look bad. but i found the most delightful little flourish: right to life clinton county was founded by a woman from one of those big name catholic dynasties, yes, but, in partnership with an evangelical woman, the daughter of bob jones’s elmer rumminger. guy blurbed in every article that taught americans the phrase “segregation academies” five years ago. bob jones segregationist right here with our german catholic developers. what a blessing!

Anatomy of a Fall Live Read

Courtesy of Film Independent

Justine Triet's crime-thriller Anatomy of a Fall has been nominated for five Oscars: Best Picture, Directing, Actress in a Leading Role (Sandra Hüller), Best Original Screenplay (Justine Triet, Arthur Harari) and Film Editing (Laurent Sénéchal).

But before the Academy Awards are handed out next month, the script gets a Film Independent Live Read treatment at the Wallis Annenberg Center for the Performing Arts in Beverly Hills this week.

Triet herself leads the live read-through performance of the whodunit by a cast that includes Riley Keough (Daisy Jones & The Six), Bob Odenkirk (Better Call Saul), Jay Ellis (Top Gun: Maverick), Kate Berlant (Dream Scenario), Danny Ramirez (Top Gun: Maverick), Quincy Isaiah (Winning Time) and Olivia Wilde (Babylon).

Anatomy of a Fall focuses on the death of Sandra’s husband who was found by their visually impaired son, Daniel, and their dog, Snoop. Sandra becomes the main suspect. Did he jump? Was he pushed? Is Sandra innocent or a convincing, manipulative liar?

Decide for yourself at this Valentine's Day Live Read. Sounds like a good time, whether you bring a date...your ex...a friend...or a frenemy.

Film Independent: Live Read Anatomy of a Fall Wednesday, Feb. 14 at 7:30 p.m. Wallis Annenberg Center for the Performing Arts 9390 N. Santa Monica Blvd., Beverly Hills Tickets: $30 for Film Independent members; $40 for nonmembers

[infamousbrad]

From September of 1974 to May of 1978, I attended an Independent Fundamentalist Baptist church run, John Birch Society funded cult brainwashing high school called Faith Christian Academy. The campus was a former mafia-owned golf course in Florissant, Missouri that was seized by the feds and sold to Dr. John Stormer, mostly famous for his conspiracy theory classic None Dare Call it Treason, less well known for being one of the cofounders of the nation-wide Union of Christian Schools, to use for his (thankfully long-ago closed) Calvary Chapel church and its attached private school.

Although they did manage to (briefly) convert me to Biblical Literalist Christianity, I was never not a disappointment to them because if they couldn't unambiguously prove any one of their doctrinal claims, I would politely but firmly tell them that I was going to, well, assert my authority and responsibility to make my own moral decisions in prayerful contemplation of scripture using sound tools of Biblical exegesis, as they had trained me. Except that for all that they taught "priesthood of the believer," in practice, if you came to a different conclusion from them and refused to accept that that meant they were right and you were wrong, they called that "rebelling against the authority that God has placed over you."

For example, as my class (of 28 students) approached graduation, we were all pointedly told that there (a) we were all expected to graduate from college in order to make ourselves better able to bring about the Kingdom of God on Earth in the United States, but, importantly, (b) there were only four colleges we could attend and "remain within the will of God:" Bob Jones University, Liberty Baptist University, Dallas Theological Seminary, and one tiny little school I'd never heard of called ... Hyles-Anderson Christian College. Which I gather is a major target of the documentary linked above, Let Us Prey.

I politely told them that none of those four schools had a decent math department, that I had gotten admission and financial aid to attend a Methodist university, Taylor University, and that I could not possibly care less about their opinion on the subject. But a friend and classmate of mine, the captain of the cheerleading squad, did apply for and receive admission to Hyles, and was excited to go.

The next Easter vacation after that, when I was back in St. Louis, I spotted her entirely by accident in a local mall, walked up and said hi, you're back for spring break too, how are things at Hyles? And she freaked out. She begged me to walk away and forget that I'd seen her, to tell no one where she was. She swore and said now she might have to run away again, she was afraid of having someone know that she was back in St. Louis.

Because, she said, her parents had signed a contract promising to return her to Hyles-Anderson, by any means up to and including force, and she wasn't back for spring break, she had run away, was homeless and on the run, had only come into the mall to warm up. And she said that she would kill herself rather than go back.

"Brad," she said, "I'm too ashamed to even tell you what happens there. You have no idea." I didn't press her on it. I offered help and she was afraid to take it. I never saw her again. I'll probably never know what horror she was fleeing, and I'm afraid to guess.

(I left Christianity behind forever, went more or less back to the humanism I was raised in, just a few years after that, in 1983.)

When I just saw a movie trailer linking the Independent Fundamentalist Baptist denomination in general and Hyles-Anderson Christian College in particular with mass physical and sexual abuse, including against minors? I wasn't at all surprised. It made me think about the fear I saw on the face of my old friend Johanna. I hope they didn't catch her and send her back to that right-wing rape camp. I hope she's okay. I hope she found healing somewhere.

Top 100 Ladies of TV

A challenge issued by @televinita that ended up being a lot harder than I expected?? For someone who watches as much TV as I do, this should’ve been a cakewalk but I was struggling.

Bob Jones Academy, January 2015.

[74olala]

My older sister was public schooled until high school at which point Mom found it easier to home school her because the county combined the high school into one school and we were on the other side of the county from it. My older brother went to public school for kindergarten, failed kindergarten for "being too active" and afer hearing that he was going to have to repeat kindergarten because of that just pulled him out and homeschooled him K-12. I was utterly enthralled by my brother's schooling so Mom started me a year early and figured there was no point in even bothering to try putting me in with a kindergarten teacher who was willing to fail kids for being too active and homeschooled me K-12. My sister did 4-H, I can't remember if my brother did, I did not. We did the library's ummer reading programs, and also had regular playdates with other homeschoolers.

The program Mom used was A Beka Academy as family is Baptist. We did the video program so we watched recorded videos of lectures. By the time I reached high school they were doing dvds instead of VHS tapes, [can't remember if my brother got dvds for his high school] but my parents do still have VHS tapes that have recordings of the ABeka teachers on them so I think there may have been some recording so we don't have to pay for renting the tapes going on there. I was tempted my senior year to switch over to Bob Jones's program for my last year because they had started online live classes, but I didn't because I was worried my credits wouldn't transfer over properly. [am now pretty glad I stayed with A Beka all things considered]

My only real complaint with ABeka was the time I took Spanish 1 and 2 with my brother but wasn't officially in high school so they wouldn't let me get credit for those, so I ended up taking French 1 and 2 and then Spanish 1 again so I could get the three years language credits required since all they offered for languages was French 1 and 2 and Spanish 1 and 2.

Also A Beka has an honor roll, no clue how it works, but I made it onto Honor Roll in tenth grade.

I really wish that when I entered college I had known it was a possibility to test out of subjects because Mom made me take the Honors classes that ABeka offered, so my first year of college was super easy and I totally think I could've tested out a majority of those classes if I'd only known I'd could.

If you could answer this, put your country/state in the tags, and share this it would be appreciated! I'm an ex-homeschooler from Texas and I'm genuinely curious on what people from outside of America think about homeschooling or if it's even a thing elsewhere
