Oral Roberts University scandal--And why are we surprised by this?


Another reason Richard Roberts should never have been allowed to run a "university." In his statement to the media this morning, he mispronounced "litigious."

Also, hearing messages from God should get him committed to a small, safe, padded room. Or get him elected president of the USA.

The most horrifying detail in this report from the AP about the brewing nastiness at ORU in Tulsa is that Mrs. Roberts, the university's self-proclaimed "first lady," spent 39K of the college's funds on clothing from Chico's.

Chico's! Home of hideous double-knits and capris for menopausal mamas! Chico's is to fashion what ORU is to college education.

Also, what's with the text messages to "underage males," Mrs. R.?

God tells me these folks are giving crazy a bad name.

Kathie Lee Gifford went to ORU, didn't she?

People who have had recent experience with filling out college applications can provide some helpful hints on how to fill out the application, what should definitely be included and what info you'll want to leave out. buy essay writing services

Know the deadline for submitting your application and work on getting it turned in before that date. Set up a schedule that leaves you enough time top write your personal essay and make any revisions to it. You'll also want plenty of time to brainstorm all your activities and accomplishments from your high school career, so you don't forget anything important. help with essay

While it might be tempting to embellish your achievements to impress the college admissions team, avoid doing so. You want your application to accurately reflect your educational and extra-curricular record. Of course, this doesn't mean you dwonplay what you ahve accomplished. Be sure and highlight the achievements you're most proud of, to help you stand out from other applicants. essay papers for college
