Christian schools often encourage "MRS" degrees. It's kind of expected to see when you're living among a lot of people who supposedly share your values and beliefs. My brother did propose to my sister-in-law while she was still a student there, though she was almost done with her degree (which hasn't been useful for employment as of yet. Neither has mine for me, but I earned it elsewhere). They didn't meet there, though; they met on an intense mission trip the summer after their junior year of high school, and went on another trip the next year. All three of us went to Cornerstone as sophomores, at the same time, and she and I roomed together. But it was too expensive, and a couple years later my brother and I were taking courses at the community college - not intentionally at the same time. He got out of private college and through community college before racking up a ton of debt, ending up in a field he loves that Cornerstone doesn't/never will offer.

I don't think any of us feel our time there was very beneficial. A "Christian" college seemed ideal, and I wanted to get out and experience dorm life. It wasn't worth it, I should have gone straight to community college for some gen eds. That's probably a better choice for most people. IMO, a "Christian" college is only useful for those pursuing work in Christian fields.
