Ozark Bible Institute

Ozark Bible Institute is a North Korea-style boot camp disguised as a Bible College located in Neosho, Missouri. The rules, guidelines and Orwellian-atmosphere far surpass any other Fundie School.

Rules
The rules are extremely strict, ridiculous, barbaric, primitive and downright sexist. The rules here make Southeastern Free Will Baptist College look ultra-liberal.

Spiritual Life and Chapel

 * Several chapels are held per week at Ozark Bible Institute, and student attendance is mandatory.
 * Mandatory prayer meetings on Monday are required for dorm students.
 * If a student is married, their family also must attend the 5:30 PM Sunday service.
 * Prayer band participation is required
 * Like many fundie schools, all students (regardless of whether or not they are graduating) are required to attend Commencement.

Moral Standards

 * No Profanity
 * No Card-playing
 * No Gambling
 * No Dancing
 * No attendance at Bowling Alleys, intercollegiate games, movies or carnivals.

"Social Life"

 * Students are forbidden from dating "unsaved individuals".
 * Due to their Fundamentalist point of view, we think this actually means that students are forbidden from dating individuals who are against Trump, against Young Earth Creationism, or who don't think that all gays will go to Hell even if they identify as Christian.
 * No physical contact between the opposite sex
 * Students must obtain a GPA of 2.0 or higher in order to date
 * If a class is failed, two (2) hours will be deducted from "dating hours" for the next semester.
 * During the first quarter of school, Freshmen will not be allowed to date
 * In fact, simply talking to somebody of the opposite sex during this time block is prohibited (Page 22).


 * For the remainder of the school year, Freshmen are limited to eight (8) hours of date time per year
 * Sophomores are allowed 9 hours
 * Juniors are allowed 10 hours
 * Seniors are allowed 12 hours


 * Unless two Seniors are dating, a third-party chaperone is required for all dating sessions.
 * Couples may not study together. The one exception is in the library.
 * If a couple sits together during a mandatory chapel sermon, date time will be deducted
 * Students may not marry during the school year

"General" Rules

 * If a student wishes to go 30 miles or beyond off-campus, or if they choose to go off-campus on the weekend, they must obtain a "Weekend Pass". This is to be signed by the Dean, Business Supervisor and Dorm Supervisor.
 * Students are required to study one hour per "class hour".

 * Students are restricted to "quiet games" on Sundays.
