Sounds like a horrid place to go to school.

What's your point in posting the rules at a private institution which people attend of their own free will?

So, I'd have lasted, what, a week at this school?

"Persons of opposite sex occupying a motel room." No problem there. Who can afford a hotel room? Now, if they'd have had a "Persons of opposite sex occupying the bushes in the quad.", they'd have had me.

I wouldn't have lasted the first week when I was 18.

I didn't read it all. Is there any mention of the penalty for pointing your finger and pretending it's a gun?

Geez - how could anybody consign their sons to such a den of fagdom as that? And why would anyone want their daughters to go their and become humorless crones at the ripe old age of 19?

Please tell me that student loan $$$ is not provided to students there.

4 out of the 5 pastors at my Church are Liberty grads. I'm glad they had no problem with these rules of conduct. If you don't like the rules, nobody says you gotta stay.

But you missed the funniest links. Examples of the school's dress codes for men and women.

I guess they wanted to limit the cloting options to items that could be found at Wal-mart so no one would feel left out.

Man, what an awful place.

And people complain about the rules at my private Christian college. I like the rules because they are Biblically based.

That crap at Liberty is legalism.

Hey, sounds good. I have four (4) kids in college and I ould be happy if any would have went there. Our most interesting was a private Baptist college and that sure isn't a place to be unless you want to smoke, drink, and get a tatoo. Life is great... you never stop learning.

Attendance at, possession or viewing of, an "R," -rated movie

So much for Gladiator, Patriot and Braveheart.

[Not to mention Terminator and Rambo.]

I grew up in Lynchburg, VA, home of Liberty U. Yes, it got a lot of snarky remarks from us townies about the strict rules. However, folks, nobody is holding a gun to the heads of the students there. They voluntarily associate themselves with the rules, and if they want to go to a school with restrictions like that, it's their prerogative to do it. LU is, rules aside, a pretty decent college academically.

Now, on the flipside, strict rules don't necessarily mean that your kids are going to come out of LU as saints. When I was working for a computer consulting firm back in Lynchburg, I was assigned to help implement some systems at a new manufacturing plant. The management at the plant invited me out to the ONE dance club in Lynchburg in thanks for the work I put in. (150,000 people in the SMSA, and back then there was exactly one non-country dance club in the entire town, and it was only open three or four nights a week.)

One of the employees we went there with was a recent Liberty grad, who immediately started downing shots when she got there--and she obviously knew her way around the place. In fact, she was busy the whole night pointing out people she knew. ("I roomed with her sophomore year...I went out with that guy once...oh yeah, I had a biology class with her...") Suffice to say that regardless of the fact that LU actually has "spies" around in eeeeeevil places like bars and dancehalls (what few there are in Lynchburg), teenage resourcefulness will always win out.

Final note--students were expelled from LU back in the 80s for distributing Pentecostal literature. LU is Baptist. Make of that what you will.

Association with those consuming alcohol

I guess that means if you're a practicing Catholic, you are in violation of the rules. Nice place. Does the woman's dress code consist of burqas?
