Students at Liberty University in Virginia gathered Friday to protest in the wake of news reports containing allegations that school president Jerry Falwell Jr. improperly benefited from the institution and disparaged students in emails.
Students joined together at the private evangelical university known for being an influential hub in conservative politics and held up signs calling for accountability and an investigation.
Elizabeth Brooks, a junior majoring in politics and policy, told The Associated Press by phone that a recent Politico Magazine story as well as a Reuters report prompted the protest at the school in Lynchburg. She said about 35 students were involved.
"I couldn't stay silent anymore," the 20-year-old said. "I would like to see President Falwell address this himself and for there to be an investigation into the allegations to see whether or not they're true."
At least one student held a sign that read: "I TRUST JERRY."

Get a look at this Brooks gal on WRAL. Also her girlfriends. I didn’t know they had an LGBTX faction at Liberty. The one male student pictured is a Theater Major. ‘nuff said.
To clarify, It’s not the guy whose sign says “I Trust Jerry.”
So you have read something which came from the internet.
I believe we have moved beyond the rumor stage into the “we know this for a fact” stage.
How can you tell? If someone was going to make up emails, they probably would have had him saying something worse.
I’m waiting for their exposé on the heads of most major universities.
Right.
