That sort of shennanigan really seems to undermine the academic objective. I've found more and more a safe environment to ask questions and put it out there. I can tell you that my belief concerning the godhead thus far has been a non-issue, and I even wrote a final paper criticizing the traditional view of the godhead (poking holes and asking questions of it). No backlash. In fact, I was put on the Dean's list of the college after that term. I'd have a much harder time in a Oneness school, questioning the doctrine of the Oneness... at least I'd think I would.
I see a day when we can just follow Jesus, and accept each other for where we were. Godhead theology or not. Different ideas about healing, prayer, faith... but that we were all following Jesus having these discussions in the umbrella of love and discipleship.

I would think that you would be the best one to tell me when - or even if it happened to you. I was speaking of the scene around 30 years ago. A lot has changed since then. The whole "open campus" thing has opened up far more things than just the campus.
Our institutions still lag behind - and I think it's because we want to be like the "trinnies" were 30 years ago. We want to control. We want to enforce conformity now.
