Settling is more important than keeping students safe from alleged sexual predators. Indeed, it’s increasingly difficult to deny that this is simply business as usual for too many Christian institutions. religionnews.com/2024/10/04/…

.@LibertyU & its digraced frmr prez @JerryFalwellJr have reached a settlement agreement, ending years of dueling lawsuits & back-and-forth allegations.
Both apologize for "errors & mistakes." Falwell gets "authorized retirement & severance." 1/2

And in fact to this day @LibertyU has refused to acknowledge a rape was reported to them in 2005. – at Thomson, GA

“The worst scandal in American higher education” is the moral collapse at @LibertyU, writes @DavidAFrench.
He’s right. And LU’s response to scandal has always been to attack its critics and refuse to apologize — making its corruption that much worse.

A group of students held signs at yesterday’s @LibertyFootball game after a Department of Education report revealed LU failing to follow campus safety laws and lying about its crime statistics.
Protesting can be a hard thing to do at Liberty. We’re proud of these kids.

With the Clery Act in the news if you’re thinking about how your institution complies please take this opportunity to rethink the ASR. It shouldn’t be a long dry report if it’s going to be effective. safecampuses.biz/mark-30th-a… – at Thomson, GA

Deliberately destroying records, no matter who did it, was an institutional transgression (along with the other upheld findings in the report). These were institutional failings, and the institution should take ownership and seek to make restitution.

Sure. But growns up don’t cry “it’s not fair” when the hammer comes down. Especially with such serious matters. That one sentence ruins the whole response. 😕

Liberty University, a private Christian university that has marketed itself for years as having one of the nation’s safest campuses, agrees to record $14 million fine for failing to disclose crime on its campus apnews.com/article/ac7f36576…
Save71 retweeted
"The $14 million fine is the largest imposed on a school for violating the Clery Act, per the department. As part of the agreement, the school will spend $2 million on campus safety improvements and compliance enhancements."
Will Liberty University also now agree to pay the students who have been sexually victimized and traumatized?

Rather than demonstrate genuine repentance and lament, @LibertyU whines that it was treated unfairly.
Grievous response. This fine is pocket change for the school.

The Clery Act has extensive requirements for preventing and responding to sexual violence. This wasn't just about failing to disclose crime data. safecampuses.biz/the-clery-a… – at Thomson, GA

Today, the @usedgov announced what I found two years ago: @LibertyU violated fed law in their treatment of sexual assault survivors. Today the news will be the historic $14M fine against Liberty. But the bravery of the survivors is the real story: propublica.org/article/the-l…

Doug Wilson’s lawyer has contacted us. We are consulting with a lawyer to consider options, and will be crowdfunding for legal fees. Please stand by for that crowdfunding link to go live. If anyone has a way to contact Boz Tchividjian, we would love his help. Thanks, all.

Me: Christians are called to seek first the Kingdom of God. Our identity cannot be rooted in American politics.
@LibertyU vice provost: "Tim do you want a larger administrative state or a smaller administrative state? Everything hangs on your answer to that single question."

My final book excerpt is a conversation w/ Cal Thomas, the onetime Moral Majority lieutenant who now disavows the religious right. He dishes on Trump, Pence, and of course, Jerry Falwell Sr.
