This editorial reminds me a lot of the one written last semester about the attendance policy and how it should be removed. Except I agree with this editorial.

I have worked as a desk worker in freshman dorms for two years now, and my shifts have always been around the time curfew happened, either before or after, and invariably there is someone who tries to convince me that curfew is stupid, and should be removed. My response to them is always: “you knew this was a rule. It’s not going to change this year. Deal with it.”

I’ll admit to doing my share of Chapel whining. But, like the author of this editorial, most of my whining is about the content of Chapel, rather than the enforced nature of it.

We’re adults, and we make decisions and have to accept the consequences thereof. It boils down to this: you, the student, chose ACU for a reason. It was probably a reason important enough to make you choose ACU over other, cheaper, less restrictive schools. Maybe it was the strength of the program, maybe it was your financial aid packages, maybe it was your family’s history at ACU. Whatever the reason, you chose it with full knowledge that Chapel is a requirement. If not going to Chapel is more important to you than getting an excellent education in business, biology, music, or what have you, then go to another school.
