The university statement reads; “Liberty University will not revoke the scholarship we offered to Carrie Prejean. We will continue to stand with Prejean, despite past decisions, in her public defense of traditional marriage. Inviting someone to Convocation is not an endorsement of all of their views or past decisions. We invited Prejean to Convocation because she was berated and discriminated against because of her public support of traditional marriage. This is why we invited her and this is why we offered her a scholarship.“
“Of course, what really is going on here is a ceaseless attempt by the enemies of marriage to further embarrass this young woman because of her personal convictions. It is no surprise that those who have been mocking, slandering, and attacking this young woman for more than a week would continue to do so. If they were not able to dredge something up from her past; they would have invented it. We are praying for Ms. Prejean.“
Prejean is not sure if she’ll take Liberty up on the scholarship offer.
