How many signatures will it take on the petition to have any impact or does it even matter at all? It's now approaching 30,000 names. I am not an alumnus but have seen many friends who are that have signed it, so I know that actual Liberty alumni are signing it and not just random people.

I, who used to defend Falwell, even signed it. It comes down to the fact that LU could do so much better without him continually tarring our good name. What will it take to get him to go though? Is this a hostage situation? Does he just do what he wants with impunity?

Agreed, I want to find out if it possible to remove the school president via board member vote, and if so, how many votes are needed.

Maybe God is working in his heart... No, more likely he is on vacation. Watch for the pics of Jerry doing something crazy like bareback horse riding in a mountain lake and Becki in the background in her bikini.

He and family are in Florida watching rocket launch and visiting fresh water springs. Posted pics on FB. I'm stalking him, they showed up in my news feed

As I posted last week, LU is one of the most minority friendly universities in the country. Anyone who thinks otherwise is lost in left field.

That's some seriously weak tea.

You said that but gave no reasons or examples as to why you think that. Which is the norm with you but since you brought it up again feel free to give examples as to why. If you aren't willing to do so then you should probably stop because I can find tons of minority students (past and present) who say otherwise.

You might wanna sit down with a book and research that opinion. I’m sure just in Virginia alone ODU, Hampton, Norfolk St, VCU and others would dispute that

I’m glad he’s listening. He doesn’t get the benefit of the doubt so we’ll have to wait and see if the listening turns to change, but I’m thankful he made the effort.

Trust takes time. I'll be praying for this to be the first of many steps.

[thepostman]

You guys are better people than I. There is a reason I didn't share my own commentary on it.

[Jonathan Carone]

I would love nothing more than to see him publicly repent, change his ways, and lead the University in a way that honors God and his dad. That’s the best solution. Just don’t expect it’ll ever happen.

“He also said he's considering giving students a Martin Luther King Jr. Day holiday. "I didn't even know we were open," said Falwell.

Reached by phone Monday, President Jerry Falwell Jr. said inviting Trump on Martin Luther King Jr. Day was a purposeful decision, and it was selected out of several possible dates. “We chose that day so that Mr. Trump would have the opportunity to recognize and honor Dr. King on MLK day,” he said, adding it’s part of Trump’s plan for the speech.

Whatisthetruth take a look in the mirror.

[Purple Haize]

I’m confused

[Whatisthetruth]

Correct, the point is Jr claims he does not know if the school is open on MLK day, yet several years back he invited Trump to speak on MLK day. How many of you really believe Jr doesn't know if the school is open or closed on MLK day?

[olldflame]

I’m confused

I can only surmise that he is suggesting that Jerry's statement that he did not know the school was open on MLK day is contradicted by the fact that he invited Trump to speak on MLK day in 2016. I don't think that's necessarily the case.

He's suggesting Trump suporters are deplorable, bad people. Sad.

[Whatisthetruth]

Actually, all I am suggesting is Jr is playing fast and loose with the truth. But believe what you want.
