I don't have to agree with it, but they're a private college funded with private cash, that adheres to a strict set of moral principals.

If you're a college, primarily founded on Christian values, a party that doesn't represent traditional Christian values isn't going to be favored.

Now, granted, the whole ordeal seems kind of silly, like you're sheltering college-age men & women (and I say that, because they're not kids), but if they don't like it, they're welcome to transfer to another private school that supports their political affiliation, or a publicly funded school.

Im with Eddie on this one. I dont agree, but it's their right as a privately owned college.

Oh yeah, they're absolutely within their rights. Still, what kind of education can a person get if different views are outright banned?  These people aren't being educated, they're being programmed.

Then again the type of person who would actually want to attend this school probably isn't too open to hearing opposing voices anyway.

How exactly does this affect their education in any manor? This affects their political beliefs, so unless they're taking politics for a class I fail to see how this affects their education.

Also, to those thinking this college is some sort of hardcore, beat-your-face-in-the-name-of-Jesus-for-not-being-Christian type of school, you're pretty far off. I've been to the school a few times to visit my aunt when she was still attending. You walk in the dorms and see people wasted out of their mind and puking all over some random chick they just hooked up with, Crushed pills on the tables, etc. If anything, liberty is a party school.
