. This week, our newsletter editor, Jessie Li, talked with her about the backstory behind her reporting, and her time interviewing Jerry Falwell, Jr., after his resignation as the school’s president.It started off as a dispatch, to see what the atmosphere on campus was like after Jerry Falwell, Jr., resigned. But when I went down to Lynchburg and started poking around, it wasn’t easy to get access to people. The students were very skittish about talking to me.
Do you have a sense of what’s next for the Falwells? What’s the future of the Falwell name and legacy? For Jerry, Jr., it’s interesting, because in many ways, he didn’t want to be at Liberty. He went to U.V.A. law school. He tried to strike out on a separate path as a real-estate lawyer. And he was pulled back into Liberty because it was on the brink of financial collapse. So he had returned originally to help out, because his father was not a good businessman. He not only rescued it but, over the years, grew it into this very prosperous institution, with a huge endowment.
