Yes, good point.  Definitely something to consider if I teach elsewhere on the future.  Truth be told, where I live probably 95% of people here haven’t heard of either school!  Still something to consider.

Their circle includes several other colleges in the region as well. Liberty has a reputation. That is something to consider when wanting a career in academia. Liberty is in the news for all of the wrong things lately as well.
Yes, agreed.  They are always in the news.  It is sort of crazy.

Thank you!  I totally agree.  I am only considering PhD programs now.  Options are less unfortunately.  DBA programs seem to be everywhere now!
