I'm serious. I hear that thrown out as the reason to not add Liberty. I hear that every time I bring up online degrees. What does it exactly mean? Are we saying that these schools are just handing out diplomas as long as the check clears? Is there not actual teaching going on in these courses?

Not arguing any of that but comparing us to the states, cities, the political climate in those areas and schools isn’t fishing in the same pond.

You think those schools don’t face political pressure from the giants in the state? Just like UCF/USF have to deal with Florida and FSU pressure?

We manufacture our own problems. It’s not 1984 any longer.

Florida and Texas arent close to as crooked as Louisiana, never have been and never will be,we wrote the book. Thats why those states arent complete ___ and have people moving there in droves.

I agree, it has been nearly 40 years since 1984. It's time for us to get over it and move on bigger and better.

Liberty is #16
Troy is #25

Are we kicking Troy out of the league for having a worse online program than Liberty?
