I
have grown up at LU and have watched it go
to hell... literally. I am not even sure if I
would consider myself a Christian anymore based on what I
have seen. Prominent religious professors slept with students and
the university covered it up... even when it happened repeatedly.
The way the university ignores legal issues, including safety
issues, would make most companies blush. The university records ALL
phone calls and, when I questioned them about why they
thought they could do it and not tell anyone about
it, I was told “that’s why we have a law
school.” I really do not even know where to
start. If you are a student currently at Liberty, go
and find your God. He isn't at Liberty. If you
are a prospective student, make sure you ask questions about
how many actually graduate and when, because 6 years is
the average. The student services offices only want your money
and will NEVER be helpful unless they are getting money.
There is very little to do in Lynchburg unless you
really like Wal-Mart. Forget about your social life because your
friends WILL turn you in for anything. And God
forbid you think or hold an opinion that doesn’t complete
agree with Baptist “beliefs”… you’ll be prayed over like you
just sacrificed a goat to Satan. The Bible comes
second to the Baptist agenda.
The women are a bit
on the “Jesus is my husband” side and hug like
a lesbian gay pride parade. Latent lesbianism is rife on
the campus, and the students are taught that any sexual
feelings or thoughts are EVIL! There’s a rule on
campus that you can’t hug for more than three seconds…
and NO ONE can actually answer if you ask “is
that an actual rule in writing?” If you enjoy
kissing your boyfriend or girlfriend and plan on attending LU,
be prepared not to kiss for FOUR YEARS. You’ll
get reprimands (which cost money) for kissing. Girls will
take you for granted, because most of Liberty is comprised
of whiny boys and ditzy girls who have incredibly unrealistic
views and thoughts about life, sex, marriage, and the opposite
sex, and Liberty does nothing to fix it.
I loved
Jerry, but all the problems started with the 50,000 goal.
Dave Young, the previous Executive vice-president, at least tried to
enhance the academics but the current administration under Godwin is
all about the numbers. If you do some checking around
you will find that Godwin stole money years ago and
was walked out. The long and the short of it
are that he has dirt on everyone so he can
make threaten people’s jobs.
I love God but this
school has NOTHING to do with God. God is for
sale at LU and doesn't come with any warranty. ie...
most people are rather close-minded and will give you the
run-around about anything. If you are a parent at LU
just remember: if your daughter sleeps with a basketball or
football player, she will get blamed and the athlete will
get off scott-free. I have heard of this first hand,
and you should also ask the local police of their
opinion of LU. You won't be impressed, as they claim
that the drug problem seems to start when the student
come back to Liberty and slows down when they leave.
I know at this point you probably think I am
ranting or know all the rumors. Neither; I worked at
Liberty and sought solace in the fact that God is
in control, but the people I worked with were anything
but Christians. If you want to change the world, don't
hand the waitresses a tract, tip them well and don't
say a word. Be a Christian, period. If people ask
you about God, then you have done your part. Other
than that, stop wearing, selling, printing, speaking, and representing something
you really aren't. That to me is being a Christian,
and my view of being a Christian is not popular
at LU. Some co-workers told me I was going
to hell.
You will know them by their
fruits, and LU produces yearly crops of rotten apples.
But hey, if you’re in to rotten fruit and people
pretending to be something they’re not, definitely go waste your
life and money at LU. But don’t expect to
find God there… unless he’s a hard-core, blow-hard Southern Baptist
preacher.
