Bob Jones U apologizes for racist past

Bob Jones University of Greenville, SC, famous for its long-time segregationist policies, has placed a statement on its website, apologizing for that history.

…for far too long, we allowed institutional policies regarding race to be shaped more directly by that ethos than by the principles and precepts of the Scriptures. We conformed to the culture rather than provide a clear Christian counterpoint to it.

Too little, too late, some will say. But I’m glad they did it.
