Never really thought about it till I was reviewing the areas of focus for the upcoming "Giving Day" and noticed several buildings named for our Founder, Jerry Falwell Sr. I mean...I knew there were buildings named for JFSR...but I never paid attention that there was no "Sr" on the designation.
This may sound petty, but I would really like to see LU clarify that these buildings are for Sr. and not vaguely state "Jerry Falwell"....such as our library does. Although he's no longer on campus or directly affiliated, I personally want no "labels" that could be misunderstood for Jr. on LU's campus (we have enough labels as it is, thanks to him). I think LU should be sure we are clearly honoring the one Jerry and thereby separate as much as possible from the other.
