Liberty has many 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 [[Title IX|women]]'s [[basketball]] team made it to the NCAA tournament in 2005.<ref>http://www.ncaasports.com/basketball/womens/brackets/viewable/2005/DI</ref>

Liberty has faced criticism from conservatives for allowing, and even funding, the advocacy of [[abortion]] by its debate team.<ref>http://www.theamericanview.com/index.php?id=590</ref> But it is otherwise known to be a strongly [[conservative]] college.
Liberty has faced criticism from conservatives for allowing, and even funding, the advocacy of [[abortion]] by its debate team.<ref>http://www.theamericanview.com/index.php?id=590</ref> But it is otherwise known to be a strongly [[conservative]] college. Liberals and the Republican [[Never Trump]] movement have criticized the institution because of university president Jerry Falwell Jr's endorsement of [[Donald Trump]], although the much larger pro-Trump movement sees this as a good thing. Liberty University was honored to host President Trump as a speaker at its 2017 commencement ceremony.
