Hey Pollinator, I go to this college, so i think i know what I'm talking about. What do you base your 'opinionated' accusation upon?

[edit] Pictures and alumni

Adding pictures to this article would give it a new look; some notable or historical landmarks within the campus would give some idea to a general reader about how the college actually looks like. An important aspect of any college is its list of alumni. Some names of notable alumni would add another dimension to this article.

Benjamin Hooks is actually not a Berea alum, although his grandmother, Julia B. Hooks was. I changed the article accordingly --Kp_kyak 12:31, 25 October 2006 (CDT)

"Berea College campus is a strange mixture of progressive and conservative thought. Being a 'liberal christian' institution, in the heart of America's bible belt, has a tendency to cause bizarre rules and regulations."

I deleted this whole paragraph. It's poorly developed, and judgemental in tone ("strange mixture" and "bizarre rules"). The use of the term "bible belt" is slangy at best and offensive at worst. "Christian" should be capitalized.--BAW 02:00, 24 August 2006 (UTC)
