Most Devout Christian Schools
No.5 Pepperdine University School of Law, Malibu, Calif.
At Pepperdine, social events and official ceremonies begin with prayer. That's a significant part of the school's culture. "It is not unusual that business meetings will likewise be convened with a request to God for prudence, understanding and guidance," the school's website notes. "Many of Pepperdine's professors and administrators take the time to spiritually encourage and pray with students and others who need the care that those who profess faith are called to give." Pepperdine is affiliated with Churches of Christ, but students of all faiths are welcome.
