How is it fair that students have been expelled for much less. Those are "lives" we are dealing with also. Why dont we just say.. "anything goes"...heck...we can always play the "grace" card.
I do not know when you graduated, but students are no longer expelled on the first offense for something like this. Liberty was way over the top back in the day, to the point where yes, lives were changed, ruined perhaps. Maybe a second chance would have kept some of them from going down the wrong path. We've learned from those mistakes, and the Liberty of today is much different than the Liberty of years past. I argue for the better, it is laughable to expel kids from school for some of the minor offenses that we did, and makes no sense at all if they need help. At the end of the day we the students pay the bills, and the new Liberty is more about grace and customer service than hard line, Bob Jones or Pensacola style discipline. Good riddance to the days of yore, the new Liberty is ready to grow to 25,000 and still remain as devoted to God as ever. If we kicked out every student for drinking a drop of alcohol (even those 21 or older) you're talking about kicking out 30% of the school, some professors, and probably a few higher ranking types too. If that's not to your liking, a certain school down in South Carolina just started up an athletics program...
