Liberty University is a Christ-centered University located in Lynchburg, Virginia. Liberty was founded in 1971 by then Chancellor the late Dr. Jerry Falwell. Reverend Falwell created the school to provide an opportunity for students to gain the benefits of a rich and diverse academic environment while simultaneously offering the opportunity to become closer to God.

Liberty has nearly boundless opportunities for both undergraduate and graduate students. The school also shines in extra-curricular pursuits. The school's debate team has been recently ranked #1 in the country, and the Quiz Bowl team recently finished fifth in a national competition. Athletically, a Liberty track member ran a mile in 3:57, and the women's basketball team made it to the NCAA tournament in 2005. [2]
