This may not be the faith of everybody teaching there, but it has two required Christian classes in the undergrad curriculum, the second of which is Adventist. This may explain why it took so long to get accreditation? Wiki says “The subjects Christian Studies I and II (or substitutes) are required for all students. The first covers salvation and Christian belief and lifestyle, while the second has a more specifically Adventist focus.”
