BJU Balderdash for $200, Alex!

If you go to any normal college or university two weeks before fall classes begin and ask about the size of the freshman class, chances are you'll get a rather straightforward response. "We've enrolled 812 freshmen to date." Or "We expect about 1,200 freshmen this year." And so on.

But ask that question at the World's Most Unusual University and...well, you'd have to be disappointed if you got anything but the World's Most Unusual Answer for your troubles.

That's just what the BJU Class of 2015 Facebook group got this week when they wanted to know how big their class is this year.

Good question, Heather. Let's see if the University representative can tell us...

Oops. Silly Alex! He thinks Heather wants to know how many freshmen are in the Facebook group, even though that number is clearly posted at the top of the page and pretty obviously not what she had in mind.

Oh, wait! Now he gets it. But he has to repeat the question again. Just to make sure that he's sure that the freshmen are sure that he knows what they're asking.

Yes! Okay, then! We're all finally on the same question, so let's get the answer from ol' Alex.

By the bald-headed Bob! Who could have guessed? It turns out that the World's Most Unusual University also has the World's Most Unpredictable Enrollment! The size of the freshman class is constantly changing! It's changing so constantly that the University can't even offer an estimate of enrollment two weeks before the semester begins!

It must be crazy down there in the admissions office. Crazy! Enrollment changing constantly! Crazy, I tell you! Pandemonium! Sheer pandemonium! BJU might as well use a random number generator to forecast enrollment at this point!

Bob Jones University. The only university in America that tells its freshmen two weeks before classes start that it has NO IDEA how many of them to expect.
