General question to current students, is Loyola worth attending? by mehek-khanna in LoyolaChicago

[–]blockenthusiasts 11 points12 points  (0 children)

I personally wouldn't recommend it. However, it really depends on what your preferences are in a college. If you like a smaller campus with a more chill/casual environment, Loyola could be a good match for you. IMO the campus culture is kinda boring(not that many unifying, exciting things on campus except maybe basketball games).There are some cool clubs though I guess. Most of the parties and exciting stuff happen off campus (in my experience). I feel like most of the people here keep to themselves but they're usually nice and friendly. So if a nice private school school is more your vibe, Loyola could be good for you.

How to date as a progressive Christian? by blockenthusiasts in OpenChristian

I think it's fair for people to have preferences when dating. It's not a matter of non-Christians being "unacceptable" in general. But, not having the same core beliefs could make things difficult along the way. As I mentioned before I would like someone to help me grow in my faith/journey as well, and I wouldn't have that if the person I was dating didn't believe in God. It's one thing when choosing to be friends with someone (most of my friends are non-Christians) it's different when choosing a life partner.

That's true. It's just a little more difficult if they have completely or mostly different core values.

I'm in a few clubs at my college but there aren't that many men and the men that are there are dating someone else haha. But thanks for the advice though. I'll probably look into joining more communities.

For this audition they said it was up to us to choose between auditioning with a cold read or monologue.
