My initial impression of a Jesuit university was one that was quit controversial, as I was logging on to numerous university review websites that indicated the "real" Fordham student life I figured it was one of those universities that is simply labeled to have integrity and a good Christian background. This was one the factors that lead my parents to let me attend the university, of course I did not tell them about things I've read and heard about it knowing full well that such things will only hinder my enrollment. However, as I reviewed the printed Rules and Regulations of the school including the Code of Conduct I was surprised to see that things like sexual intercourse and the possession of birth control such as condoms and birth control pills were prohibited, towards a certain extent. To be honest, despite such things written and documented around the school I must say that such activity still exist around the campus given the cliche excuse of "its college!"
Another rule that astounded me is the documentation on students who are under the age of 21 that are present in a room that contains alcohol despite any and all circumstance. Both rules and regulations are something I have learnt to respect fully during my first month in Fordham University. =D Yay rules!
