Alumni Weekend '09 packed with events

Homecoming Weekend

HOMECOMING PHOTOS

It was a time for nostalgia on a rapidly growing campus as Liberty University’s Alumni Weekend helped past graduates experience “Then and Now.”

The weekend was packed with exciting activities, including the Homecoming football game, tailgating and parade, bonfire, pep rally, trail race, Chancellor’s Dinner, Business Executive Luncheon, Alumni Reception, athletics events and reunions, campus tours and more.

Chancellor Jerry Falwell, Jr. and his wife, Becki, participated in the packed weekend. Alumni especially enjoyed seeing how much the campus has changed, Falwell said, and were encouraged to see so many more students having some of the same experiences they had here on Liberty Mountain.

“This weekend was one of the highlights of the year for Becki and me,” Falwell said. “The alumni from past decades expressed their delight at the growth and prosperity they saw at Liberty but, more importantly, they were thrilled to see that Liberty remained committed to its original Christian mission. We deeply appreciate the faithfulness of our alumni in helping to make Liberty what it is today!"
