This article is consistently changed by someone either from the University or close to it, to show nothing but "good" things about the university. Although everything written by this person may not be a lie, it is omitting information about the university that is true, and in some peoples opinions may be damaging. I feel this article may never be truthful and as comprehensive as it could be due to either the universities agenda to get new admissions, or someones personal agenda.

Rod Parsley was removed from Ohio Christian University a couple years into his studies due to speaking in tongues. The CCCU strictly is against this practice and Rod Parsley was unwilling to agree with the CCCU position. He was then removed from Circleville Bible College which recently became Ohio Christian University by the acting president of the college at that time. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Ohiochristian (talk • contribs) 22:53, 4 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Some information needs to be corrected on this article[edit]

Hello - I would fix the incorrect content but I was told I am not allowed to as I am an employee of the university. This seems like a stupid policy, since as the Director of Communications, I am tasked with making sure information about us is accurate.

Anyway - you have an image of the university seal labeled University Icon - that is NOT the icon. The icon is included in the university brand mark lower in that same box. The brand mark is a combination of the icon and the university word mark.

And - the seal is the academic seal for the university.

I haven't given much attention to the article in a while.

How do we ensure someone is providing accurate information on this article? DHirschler (talk) 18:41, 23 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Hello! I have made the edit from seal to icon. It is standard practice to use seals at the top of University pages, and logos/wordmarks at the bottom. If you have requested edits, you can add them to this talk page with the header "requested edit". Please ensure you refer to WP:V, WP:COI, WP:PROMO when requesting edits.

Title IX[edit]

As a 25-year-old gay man and a Christian who attended Ohio Christian University (OCU), I find the paragraph, referring to Title IX, which alleges that the university "legally discriminates" as very offensive. I never felt discriminated at the university. I also had the most liberal professor I have ever had, of the schools I have attended, in one of my courses at OCU. I consider the language of the above-mentioned paragraph to be inflammatory language. Its purpose is to manipulate the readers of the article in a way to cause them to feel prejudiced against OCU. I am proud to be an alumnus of OCU, where I graduated summa cum laude, and I appreciate how much support I received, as a student, from various professors and other staff. I had a much better experience at OCU than I had during my one semester at the University of North Texas and my time at Colorado State where I earned my MBA. Anti-Christian hate is just as much bigotry as any other types of hate. It is unacceptable and hurtful.
