He dropped out of a college that had two different names prior to starting his own in the same city.
Then I happily give up. What’s the answer (and a source, please)?

Falwell briefly attended Virginia Christian College and "dropped out" claiming it didn't teach christian values. Virginia Christian College later went on to change it's name to Lynchburg College, not to be confused with his later university "Liberty."
And I just looked it up right now, it seems the board of Trustees have since changed the name from Lynchburg College to "University Of Lynchburg" in 2017.
So it started out as VCC then went to Lynchburg College and is now University of Lynchburg. Either way back whenever Falwell went to VCC he dropped out.
