Lubbock Christian University

A Church of Christ University in Lubbock, Texas. Many students either graduate from Lubbock Christian High School or are from out of town. It is commonly referred to as "Love Connection University", because the vast majority of students marry a fellow Chap. LCU is a tight knit community that prides itself on its "Girl's Clubs" and "Boy's clubs". These groups are essentially sororities and fraternities that are rule-bound under the University. Those who choose to abstain from joining a club or playing sports will find themselves struggling to fit in due to the lack of academic activities. LCU is very much a socially focused University.

I live in Lubbock and had never heard of Lubbock Christian University, but they accepted my financial aid... so I came.
