Educational experience, outcomes and growth. That covers a lot, and you say it’s good. What are you omitting that’s bad, in your opinion?

I do think it is being made a bigger story since the narrative is their is a war on journalism coming right from the white house.
Of course out of all the narratives being painted that seems like one of the most far fetched.

In this case, yeah, they made an example out of those students and have made current staff sign an NDA.Precisely. Scare tactics are meant to scare the subject into compliance. Beyond calling it scare tactics, I think this is a pretty blatant attempt at coercion. It's like they're trying to make the name Liberty ironic. Call the school Liberty but give the students anything except for it.

If one doesn't like the paper, just don't read it. Pretty easy fix. Others dislike anything Jr. does, because he is a Trump supporter. I guess they think we would be better off with Hillary? LOL
This is all foam, no beer. MAGA.

Also, there are a lot of folks with issues with Liberty's leadership that go back further than Jr's support of Trump.

When Trump backstabs Jr., which will inevitably happen because Trump does that everyone, I wonder what nickname he would come up with for Jr.?
