Liberty University is announcing plans for a new snow-less ski slope on nearby Liberty Mountain.

“There are no beer bashes at Liberty, and no coed dorms, but it doesn’t have to be a monastery. We’re breaking the stereotype that Christian education is synonymous with boredom,” said Liberty Chancellor Jerry Falwell, Jr., who took over after his father’s death last year.

I’m not exactly sure I understand the concept, but they describe it something like this:

“Invented in 1993 by Brian Thomas of Briton Engineering, Snowflex originated in the UK and has been installed in several facilities throughout Europe. This innovative technology features small, built-in misting devices that lubricate the slope’s surface, recreating the slip and grip of real snow.”
