So my sister is in a class at UNC and they are discussing Dr. Falwell. She wants to do her own study and not just rely on her professor and text book: "The Book of Jerry Falwell" for information.....This will be fun. She gets singled out for professing her faith, but I always do my best to give her ammunition. I will update everyone here with her in class debates

My friend did his doctoral dissertation at Arkansas on the historical influence of televangelism and the moral majority in the 80s. He applied for a job posting here but didn't get the job. Sorta ironic lol

[Cider Jim]

She should read Macel Falwell's book on her husband--amazing read!

[Purple Haize]

Or Cal Thomas' book Blinded By Might

Tonight she told me another student in the class was trying to get a copy of the Liberty Way to write about how LU restricts the students' rights. lol however, the Lu website requires a name and password. Thanks ASa. lol

(chuckles) Umm that's normal isnt it ? since that is a student page wouldnt it make sense that you need to be a student to be able to read it?
have her call the dean of students office and Im sure they can send her a PDF copy

Not really. You would WANT students to know what the expectations are before they show up. It would go a long way to dispelling myths about LU. That is unless you have something to hide....

well I just logged in and gave the her a copy to give to the other student

[ballah09]

restrict student rights?

how about she writes about BYU, VMI, Air Force, Navy, and Army (West Point) to go along with Liberty. They have a lot rules too, if not stricter.

[jmdickens]

I told her to research other private schools and see if it is standard practice for our type of policies fit.....Cant wait to hear more from her

Yeah, you'd think they'd put it out there so prospective students could review it.

Here are two colleges she could add to her research, Mercer and Shorter. They're headed in opposite directions with their linkage to their faith-based traditions.

Mercer University and Shorter University represent opposite trajectories on the landscape of American education. Given the decisions made by these two schools in recent days, Mercer will receive the applause of the secular world, while Shorter will bear derision. The church had better take a good look at these two trajectories and understand what is at stake.

Very relevant article. Good read.

Shorter has been getting quite a bit of attention for their recent stances. It is cool that Mohler is giving such a small school some attention to a wider audience.
