Source: Richmond Times-Dispatch

LYNCHBURG — Fox News commentator Glenn Beck, known for his conservative views and in-your-face personality, will deliver the commencement address at Liberty University’s May 15 graduation, Chancellor Jerry Falwell Jr announced this morning.

“Beck is one of the few courageous voices in the national media standing up for the principles upon which this nation was founded,” Falwell said in a news release.

This guy never gradiated (graduated)from anything resembling a university

In 1996, while working for a New Haven-area radio station, Beck was admitted to Yale University through a special program for non-traditional students. Beck took one theology class, "Early Christology," and then dropped out.

college in the world that would invite a lunatic to speak at ALL, with official sanction from the college administration?

This proves Liberty U is not anything resembling a real college, other than a finishing school for the paranoid.

Besides, after Falwell died Phelps said he went to hell

It's obvious that the students are completely brain washed. I hope I never meet any of them.

Liberty University. Monica Goodling, or something who gave "litmus tests" to applicants was one of them, if I recall.

Not only tells you a lot about Liberty U, but about the Bush circus, too.

She never attended Liberty.

Regent is Pat Robertson's school. I realize that Pat and Jerry were indistinguishable in many ways, however.

Goodling was one of the few grads of Robertson's then fledging law school who worked for the admin. who managed to pass the bar on the first try.

Yes, Goodling was bad. Apparently, that was no problem, as long as she was hiring political appointees. (Screw separation of church and state, right? A religious test was fine.) However, when she was hiring for civil service positions, it was not ok. And she used the same test for all hires. Which turned out not to really matter all that much because Cheney made a bunch of political appointee positions into civil service positions just before the Eight Years of Horror ended.

If that isn't enough, then all the guest speakers they have had over the years, including Ed Meese and Oliver North, should be.

you wasted your money getting that degree becasue I dropped out and still got rich. I'm not even that bright.

carries more wait then won frum Liberty!

Oh weight! Really?

By any chance, anyone know someone who attended the school?

it has expanded across the dual divided highway in recent years.

You can look up there rules for students on line (whacky)

When Jerry died it turns out that he was insured to the teeth. LU is completely out of debt now. Falwell famously had to borrow money at the beginning of the school and he got it from..... Rev. Moon. A no interest loan from what I understand.

oops, didn't see the "jr"
:blush:

approx 40,000 and in attendance approx. 11,000. He will get major media coverage. The people of money controls and they want and it to stay that way. What they don't understand, we the people know better.

Will he use a blackboard?

:eyes:

little accreditation club, too!

"Today, TRACS provides academic accreditation to many of America's finest Christian institutions of higher learning. "

Have you noticed how much Glenn looks and acts and talks like Jim Jones these days?

Edit...where was their "Gawd" when they played WVU last year?

Who's next? Romney? I thought the fundies hated Mormons.

I'm sure he'll breathlessly/tearfully update them on his latest tweets from God.:puke:

Too much pathetic to comprehend.

Well, at least it's inexpensive.

glenn beck is a punk and Junior can suck my ass

Where to start, is there even a starting place anymore? Talking about My Country to the tune of My Generation by the Who.

Except for the ones that lines his pockets

answer: any right-wing one.
