This isn't true. I know for a fact that not all so-called "Christian
Colleges" adhere to the scripture as the irrefutable source for all
doctrine, especially when it comes to evilution - I went to one: Mount
Vernon Nazarene College. Further, Answers in Genesis sent a newsletter out
about a year or so ago detailing only 5 or 10 "Christian Colleges" (I can't
remember exactly how many) that would stand behind the Lord's 6 day
creation.
