Remedial approach to divinity school."Theology for Dummies",curriculum and pedagogy circa 1980,at best, no actual advising ,faculty reluctant to meet, nearly every course large lecture,hardly any of the MDiv graduates find positions, If you can't get in to any other decent div school, this is the place to come.It's like being in community college.

It might serve you well to try to avoid saying that you went to seminary here at this point, unless you really have to disclose it. There doesn't seem to be any standards for admission, or hiring for that matter. It is shockingly bad in so many ways.

Closing makes sense. Students were nice, admissions staff were nice. Some faculty were respectable and knowledgeable, but others? Not so much. Admissions standards - none. Yale's going to get at least one "surprise" in their new faculty from AN. Good luck with that.
