    Lubbock Christian University, I feel, is one of the best colleges to go to in Lubbock. I have attended other colleges in Lubbock and LCU's staff and employees are by far the most helpful and caring people you will ever meet. Immediately you feel like everyone there is there to help you and everyone else succeed! Their campus food is excellent and they even have a starbucks on campus!

    I love LCU because the class ratio is outstanding! I love that everyone there is so welcoming and helpful. The teachers are sweet and they actually care about you and your future unlike most college professors. Chapel is just another icing on the cake because while you're working to get your degree you're also getting to know God more and more each day.
    It's on my family farm. This is a small friendly West Texas Christian University in an extremely nice larger West Texas University town. It is less diverse than people there understand but the Religious Denomination that runs the school works at being "Color blind." This school is likely torture for a North Eastern Liberal Black Lesbian! And likely "Heaven" for a Shy Conservative not too over-achieving black or white straight kid. The Social life is the Religious life or you're going to Texas Tech for parties. This school started in the 1950's & strictly follows it's founding Religious principles...kindly. This is about where George Bush had his wild drunken party days. Don't assume the local population is stupid or poor.
