If you're interested in such things, a more globally-oriented missions-focused school would be Trinity (TEDS) up in Illinois, and is worth consideration. I believe it's associated with the Evangelical Free church.

D.A. Carson laid out the pros and cons at TEDS for me once. He pointed out that the faculty are very diverse doctrinally (Arminians and Calvinists, cessasionists and charismatics, egalitarian and completmentarian, etc.) so it would be impossible to interact with straw-men in such an environment, since Professor So N. So down the hall represents that viewpoint. The school is also very diverse in its international student and faculty representation. However, some (lazy) students become convinced no resolution of certain doctrinal issues is possible, since the faculty at TEDS can't come to any final agreement amongst themselves on such issues, and they eventually settle for some watered-down moderate bastardization (my word, not Carson's) of both relevant positions ("Calminianism," anyone? Possibly "Arvinisim"?).
However, the language study is top-notch (Carson teaches there, for goodness' sake), and much of the work being done by Carson, VanHoozer, et al, regarding properly relating and even unifying biblical and systematic theological categories is being done right there.

Anyway, just a coupla cents...
