who, along with Art Briles, presided over and likely took part in covering up the horrific sexual assault scandal within the football program, but they draw the line at Nike supporting Kaepernick? That's... interesting. I guess everyone gets to choose what they feel morally indignant about.

Are you surprised? It's freakin Liberty

The school's founder during civil rights argued that God wanted segregation and went against MLK. After 9/11 he blamed the attacks on "the pagans, and the abortionists, and the feminists, and the gays and the lesbians who are actively trying to make that an alternative lifestyle." He was against the entire concept of public schools, hoping that they were entirely run by christians.

In 2016, the founder's son, now the school president, came out and supported Trump for not condemning the literal nazi's in Charlottesville. They STILL teach a "creation science" course in which they actually teach college students that the earth is 5,000 years old. Now he's selling his bullsh!t to tens of thousands of internet students and raking in tax free money while he hides all his shady crap behind the haven of having nonprofit status.

If any school was going to get crazy over the Nike decision it would be Liberty, the most ass-backwards college in the states, at least among schools with D1 football teams. You absolutely do not want your school to be compared to Liberty.

Only thing Falwell cares about is the almighty dollar. He’s basically a politician pretending to be a preacher

Some of your points are certainly reasonable, but the Master's I just got there was outstanding. Had incredible professors and instruction. There's a reason they are the second biggest school in the nation.

I don’t think this speaks ill of the education. Just not a fan of the Falwell’s. I prefer my ministers to stick to the good book and stay out of politics. Just my opinion and ya know what they say about those ??

Perhaps if you took the course you would know the earth is over 6,000 years old... not 5,000. Smh...

Yeah, not many people talked about the AD thing. It's uncanny the hypocrisy of some of these schools.
