Choosing a college is, of course, a very important decision for any young man or woman. One of the purposes of the Student Voice is to make sure the prospective student at PCC is well-informed of what they are getting into. Undoubtably, you will have some expectations of whatever college you attend, and it is a quite legitimate request to know what to expect. Unfortunately PCC prefers to retain most of that information until you are actually attending the college, and even then you find out in bits and pieces. Evidentally this (unspoken) policy is justified with their oft used disclaimer, "if you don't like it, you can leave." This sufficiently illustrates their contempt for your investment of time, if not money. We would rather you know whether or not PCC is for you before you invest thousands of dollars and a year or two (or three or four) of your time. Incidentally, though PCC advertises tuition at under $5,000, expect to spend well over $6,000 a year by the time you pay your student service fees, registration fees, parking fees, books, maybe an overload or two, phone, and sundry other requirements. Granted, this is still inexpensive relative to most Christian colleges, but there shouldn't be any surprises. This page is designed to give you the most comprehensive look at PCC, outside of actually attending, so read through the following links. We promise, you will learn more from the information here than from any tour. #1: Things you won't do at PCC. This is a short list to get you started. It serves to illustrate the degree in which your life may change while at PCC. Basic things you take for granted surprisingly will not be allowed. #2: The Rules Compilation. Though much of the information in the Student Voice is constantly denounced (the truth notwithstanding), one can hardly argue with our rules compilation. A quick perusal should illustrate that your lifestyle will probably change significantly. Though not all of these rules regard sin issues, the school makes no distinction, and ironically, should you be immersed in this environment for any period of time you will find your ability to discern right and wrong actually eroded. It should be #3: Testimonies. Finally, a look at the experiences of "those who have gone before." Unfortunately, these are by no means isolated incidents. Your convictions not welcome here. A Father's Story Merry Christmas-and don't bother returning to college. Mailbox #4: You might like to view a copy of the 2001-2002 student handbook(text format). This contains much more information than the "Things to know before you arrive" pamphlet, but even still, it doesn't contain all of PCC's rules or policies.
