Man...LU is a totally different school when you look back to the days that I was there. I wish it was more relaxed back then the way it seems to be these days. My years there were: 78-79; 79-80; (sat out 80-81); 81-82; 82-83. I was a Broadcasting major with a concentration in Radio Production and my advisor was Jim Pickering (he still there?) I was constantly getting busted for violating the music code and I would "sneak" off to the movies by driving out to the Boonsboro cinemas. I think I still have a copy of the Liberty Way from the late 70s around here somewhere. I lived off campus my senior year, just a stones throw from Randy Mac. This was my favorite time there as I didn't feel like I was constantly being watched by the Liberty Preacher Boy Hit Squad for God for not following what I called clipboard brand theology. The one chapel session I still recall was when Franky Schaeffer was there. His book called, "Addicted to Mediocrity" had just come out. Maybe some of the powers that be at Liberty read that book and that got the ball rolling and that changed Liberty to the school it is today. Other than the broadcasting classes...my favorite class would have been an upper level philosophy elective class that was taught by Gary Habermas. It was on C.S. Lewis. I still have my notes from that class. Well...that's all for now. I've only been back to Lynchburg twice since I graduated in 1983 and the last time I was there was in 1998. Maybe it's time to go back and look around.

Welcome to the board, bbrothers.

Pickering just retired from the school this spring. Habermas is still on campus but not coaching hockey these days. I was a broadcasting guy in the Late '80s so I missed you. But its great to have another guy of our generation on the board. We affectionately call ourselves the Old Hags.

Some nostalgia for the LBC crowd - the cover of my first 3 ring binder circa 1980



I too remember the Franky Schaeffer "sermon" - I believe that's the one in which he compared passing out Gospel tracts to "Christian mugging", offending C. Sumner Wemp and J.O. Grooms to the core of their being and making me a very happy student.

The campus is a little bit different from 1998

oh, you have no idea.

I attended from 88-90 and didn't return for 15 years- you cannot imagine the culture shock.

You've gotta see whats going on down there!

BTW- welcome aboard. We all hate anything Texas around here.

The campus is way different then it was in 1972 to 1975 for me, as a matter of fact I think my campus may have been sold, TRBC by now with the new move. I went back in 2005 for homecoming, it is simply amazing to me what God has done.When I attended the main major were religion, bible, youth, etc. Of course during my time, LBC was Lynchburg Baptist College
