Liberty hopes to one day house 20,000 students on campus
Did our plans change or do they just not have their facts straight?

I think it's safe to say if we are housing 20,000 people we'll have another 5,000 off campus and have a total of 25,000 students.

Well, you have to have room for everybody and they have to be comfortable when they're here. If they don't have a place to stay and socialize, then they're going to be unhappy. It's a never ending cycle. It's like being on a treadmill. You have to keep up with the growth."

I think JJ needs to take some analogy lessons

I threw in the quote as you were posting. That's not anything like a treadmill.

They are no longer allowed to be called "dorms"....they are residence halls.

yeah, its always been said 25,000 in the residential program and another 25,000 in DLP was the goal...they did always 25,000 on campus and 25,000 DLP...but by on campus they of course meant residential students...
