Liberty University Top Questions

What do you consider the worst thing about Liberty University? Why?

Angela

As a School of Music student, I'd say the cliques. There are quite a few and it is easy to feel out of the loop. People from other majors don't seem to have this problem, however.

Meagan

The worst thing? Frankly I love my school, I guess the worst thing is the same thing for any college. Stuff is expensive. The program I am working on (education to become an elementary school teacher) is hard and requires me to work a lot in classrooms and with teachers without being paid. Which makes it really hard to survive long enough to get my degree. That's the truth anywhere though.

Living on campus involves a lot of walking. Lots of walking means tired, sweaty (yes, even in the winter), and smelly feet at the end of the day when I want to work out, and when I get back to my room and my roommate is there to share in suffering the smell until I shower.

The worst thing about my school is that every almost every one considers us to be "closed minded Christians." But if you're too open minded then your brains will fall out, right? The truth is, we're a loving University. We're not these crazy "Holy Rollers," per say, who follow a strict set of rules and condemn every one else who doesn't. Our motto is "Training Champions for Christ" and that's exactly what is being done. You see, in John 3:17 it states, "For Christ came not to condemn the world, but to save the world through Him." (NIV) Here we see that Christ Himself, the One who has all authority over all of the earth, didn't even come to condemn, so why should we? We shouldn't and we mustn't. I am not naive enough to think that every single person on this campus has the same view as I do, and that every one here doesn't have a judgmental bone in their bodies, because I'm sure there are some that do. But for the most part, we're the nicest people you will ever meet. Not by anything that we've done, but simply because Christ has transformed us. This day and time every one is offended by every thing and people are rising up against each other for the craziest of things. The line between right and wrong is starting to vanish. Morals are fading. Hospitality is vanishing. Hearts are breaking. The only way that each of those things can be mended is if Jesus is invited into those situations and our nation turns back to God. You see, this University trains us up as Champions for Christ, as I stated. We are equipped with knowledge, scripture, and love. This nation needs Liberty University. This nation needs leaders. This nation needs people who are not afraid to stand up for what is right and not conform to the ways of the world. This nation needs people who will fight for freedom, equality, and moral law. And that's who we are, we are Liberty.

Katie

I can't think of any. I don't start there untill next fall and when I went to visit, I didn't really notice anything bad.

Jessica

The worst thing about Liberty University is that we have a curfew, we are in college, where is our freedom. When we should be considered adults, we are told when we must be back in our rooms. It is unnessary, and makes me feel like I am not an adult that is able to make her own decisions. It may seem small, but that is because I enjoy going to Liberty University and can not complain too much.

Alexandria

There are not many negative things about Liberty University, but if I had to choose one, it would probably be how crowded and packed every classroom, bus, or buidling always is. There are a lot of students who attend here, so it gets crowded very easly.

Catherine

The only thing would be the distance. Sure I am taking courses online and I'm here in California and the school is in Virginia, but I do wish they had another campus closer to home.
