    Neil who?

    It's certainly not in the CHEA database... which I have a feeling is not news to you.

    Additionally, when searching Google on that precise text string:
    • "Neil Thomas Christian University"
    keyed-in to the Google search box exactly as shown above, including quotes, yields nothing -- at all -- then that's probably not a good sign... again, not news to you, I suspect.

    However, removing "Christian" from the above search string yields at least some results.

    Where, how, and in what context have you heard about it?

    Never heard of it. But I did find this:

    http://www.news.vu/tam/living/education/ntcu-wetem-waet-mo-marun-.shtml

    It's a reference to 'Niel Thomas Christian University' (the 'Niel' spelling is correct) on a pidgin English newspaper site from Vanuatu.

    Hey George, pour down 6 or 10 tinnies of XXXX, and Vanuatu pidgin (I think that they call it Bislama) should start making sense.

    Actually, you can almost make it out if you say it phonetically. But not quite. Maybe someday Bislama will be the same thing to English that Spanish is to Latin. It's kind of interesting from a linguistic point of view.
