Student sues Liberty University due to coronavirus response
A student at Liberty University — which is under fire for opening its campus during the coronavirus pandemic — has filed a lawsuit against the school, demanding a refund.
The school has moved all classes online, shut down on-campus recreation centers, converted all dining options to takeout only and ended all student activities — and it still wants to keep all tuition and other fees paid by spring-semester students, according to the lawsuit, which seeks class-action status to include other"similarly situated" students.
"Liberty University has tirelessly attempted to balance the needs of students, employees, and the community as it has navigated through the unprecedented health challenges presented by COVID-19," according to the statement."We have also taken into account the economic impact and legal rights of all the parties involved."
The statement said it's safe to be on campus:"Liberty's less populated and more frequently sanitized campus living environment will be maintained for those students who chose it as their safest option. Thankfully these measures have resulted in no on-campus student testing positive for COVID-19 thus far."
