Different people react differently to going to university. Some Christians have mixed feelings - it might be dangerous to their faith . . .

Others find the prospect very exciting, and can't wait to get stuck into it. Some try to be as cool as possible. For others the biggest question is what to wear on the first day.

A university student

So what is it like to be at university? The first thing a student fresh from school notices is the freedom. No one tells you what to wear. You choose what course you do. Then you notice that half the time you don't have scheduled classes and no one tells you what to do in the blank periods. Worse, no one notices or cares if you aren't in the scheduled classes. No one says anything, and if you end up with a 'fail' in that subject still no one cares.
