Liberty University President and prominent Trump supporter Jerry Falwell Jr. will take an indefinite leave from his position effective immediately it was announced Friday. 
Falwell's departure from the university comes just two days after he apologized on Wednesday for posting a picture online which showed him with his pants unzipped and his arm around a woman. 
The picture, posted and deleted from Instagram Tuesday, sparked controversy because of the strict code of conduct for Liberty University students which requires them to dress with 'appropriateness' and 'modesty'. 
'The Executive Committee of Liberty University's Board of Trustees, acting on behalf of the full Board, met today and requested Jerry Falwell Jr. take an indefinite leave of absence from his roles as President and Chancellor of Liberty University, to which he has agreed, effective immediately,' according to a statement issued by Liberty University Friday.
