Maurice “Moe” Bruce of Lynchburg Fire Department decided to enroll at Liberty in 2014 and complete his bachelor’s degree by 2016.

Maurice recommended Liberty to several colleagues for its flexible educational opportunities and ensured they considered Liberty when choosing their postsecondary programs.
