The Lynchburg Planning Commission gave a nod of approval to Liberty University’s desire to convert a former motel into apartments for graduate and married students.
The university applied for a conditional use permit to convert the former motel, known as the Annex II dormitory, into apartments for married and graduate students.

Well looks like the N&A has a pretty thorough article on it.I'm not sure I understand why the school would decide to fight the family on this one. Sure, the court order may indeed indicate that the cemetery be located on campus, but the campus has changed dramatically over the years and the family wants it moved. This seems like a legitimate concern. After Jr. told the family they'd move it, why would he change his mind? I doubt it's about the money. This just seems like another case of the school shooting itself in the foot. The whole thing could have been easily avoided and everyone could have been happy.

“My opinion is they’re not in that plot that they have fixed at Liberty. Who knows where they are? I hope they find out.

Liberty offered something that the family wanted and then took it away, right? That's not trying to make them happy. That's getting someone excited about something and then not doing it.
EDIT: evidently I'm having one of those cynical days.
