What?? It only costs $500 bucks to spent the night with a person of the opposite sex?? That is a GREAT deal.

The thirty reps are not such a great deal. Thirty means you get to go home, and still pay the $500 fine they added to your bill.

They have become pretty soft when it comes to sending people home. You one-way ticket doesn't begin until you've reached about the 80 rep plataeu.

I know people with more than 100 last semester who are still here...oh yeah, this is my 1,000th post

I had some friends off campus who lived across the street from each other (guys in one apartment, girls in another) and whenever Id go over to visit them, we'd head over to the girls apartment and watch movies, play cards or DDR. Good clean fun for all

Apparently, no one noticed the tongue firmly planted in the cheeck of that post. I thought it was funny. And I know funny!

I don't have a problem with them hammering kids for staying the night at their BF/GF's house, or even just staying the night at a friend of the opposite sex. IMO there are few exceptions like the one that was stated above. I graduated in 2000 and know of several instances where girlfriends stayed the night at their boyfriends and vice-versa! My friends and I even left campus to camp out in the same tents with the females in our group (it was a giant tent). Although my instances did not end in sex, in hindsight it certainly wasn't a good idea. The vast majority of instances I knew of where BF and GF stayed together ended up being sexual at some time. (I've got plenty of stories about walking in on friends )

Reps for visiting apartments is silly and I never have heard of it being enforced, but I can understand why the University would not want guys and girls staying at each other's houses overnight. Even if it is 100% legit, Liberty does not want to have to play detective. I think Liberty is still trying to make an environment that is not choking kids like a Bob Jones or Pensacola, but doesn't want to become a school like Baylor or Wake Forest that have pretty much become secular institutions. A school that is firm on alcohol/drugs and sex, but yet is still attractive to the 18-24 year olds of the world. A school that is still strong doctrinally, but is also known for showing grace and mercy to those who do screw up. IMO it is never a good idea for an 18-22 year old kid to stay the night with the opposite sex if it is not an emergency/no choice situation. The penalty should be steep. A girl I was friends with was dismissed for those reasons. I didn't feel sorry for her because this was her second offense within the same year. She was caught in the guys dorm, and then caught on a camping trip with guys.

Bottom line, if I were a parent (I'm neither a parent nor married), I would feel much better knowing that my 18-20 year old kid was being watched for those type of things. Hopefully they will know better, but if I found out my 18 year old daughter stayed the night at a guys apartment or boyfriends house, I would be very angry (obviously at her) and vice versa with my boy.

Of course this is coming from a guy who spent a week at Spring Break in one big hotel room with several girls.

Wow how things change!

Actually I think if anyone gets reps for anything they deserve it b/c they were dumb enough to get caught in the first place
