University and Democrat Club makes Agreement

Liberty University’s student Democratic club has reached an agreement with the school on its status.

Chancellor Jerry Falwell Jr. said today that a change in university policy will allow the Liberty University College Democrats to exist as an unofficial club. The policy change, which took effect yesterday, also changed the College Republicans from an officially recognized campus group to the new unofficial status.

Liberty withdrew official recognition of the Lynchburg school’s club last month because it supported the Democratic Party’s platforms and candidates.

Under the new policy, the unofficial organizations won’t receive school funding but may use the Liberty name and meet in school facilities if they make it clear the university doesn’t officially endorse them.

According to sources, the Dems Club members are satisfied.
