Students Rally, Liberty Board Approves Title IX Review

Liberty University students and alumni prayed and protested in solidarity with survivors of sexual assault as they called on the school's board of trustees to authorize an independent investigation into its response to reports of abuse. On Thursday evening, more than 100 people gathered behind a barrier along a traffic circle on campus -- Lynchburg's fall foliage aglow behind them -- to hear from victims' advocate Rachael Denhollander; former Liberty professor Karen Swallow Prior; and representatives of "Justice for Janes," named for the Jane Does who have come forward with claims that their abuse cases were mishandled by Liberty.
