  • Hillsdale College is an independent institution of higher learning founded in 1844 by men and women “grateful to God for the inestimable blessings” resulting from civil and religious liberty and “believing that the diffusion of learning is essential to the perpetuity of these blessings.” It pursues the stated object of the founders: “to furnish all persons who wish, irrespective of nation, color, or sex, a literary, scientific, [and] theological education” outstanding among American colleges “and to combine with this such moral and social instruction as will best develop the minds and improve the hearts of its pupils.” As a nonsectarian Christian institution, Hillsdale College maintains “by precept and example” the immemorial teachings and practices of the Christian faith.
    The College also considers itself a trustee of our Western philosophical and theological inheritance tracing to Athens and Jerusalem, a heritage finding its clearest expression in the American experiment of self-government under law.
    By training the young in the liberal arts, Hillsdale College prepares students to become leaders worthy of that legacy. By encouraging the scholarship of its faculty, it contributes to the preservation of that legacy for future generations. By publicly defending that legacy, it enlists the aid of other friends of free civilization and thus secures the conditions of its own survival and independence.

In Portugal we have a school that takes you from 1st to 12th grade, so after 12 years you know your professors like family, and it was incredible. They had a good emphasis in character building, morality, civics and ethics.

      Why in the world would you feel threatened by the term “woke?” In my vocabulary it simply means to “wake up” and see the world as it is. There is nothing left or right about it. It’s not political. It’s a spiritual awakening. Why would that bother you? Just asking 💜🙏🏼

      ​@@borncrazynotstupid"Woke" and being awakened are very different. You're confused because you think they are the same. Those who claim they are "woke" believe in many immoral things that Christians do not partake in since it goes against the Bible. Being awakened is spiritual, not political. They are pretty much the opposite. If you are woke, then you are not awakened. If you are awakened, then you are not woke.

    Hillsdale: The world needs this - continue being a light for illuminating the paths we need to follow to be knowledgeable God followers!
    Today, where semantics mean everything, the term "liberal arts" is getting to be a term that has a negative connotation - for some it is a term which defines what the ungodly is using to educate young adults away from God. Is there another term we can use to give comfort to those who are averse to want anything to do with "liberal arts"? Because the actuality of what you are doing is exactly what is and needs to be done!

      Education is supposed to be about teaching the student how to think and equipping them with the tools to do so. My dad stressed English and math because they are two of the tools used to think and communicate those thoughts. I discovered a love for other languages and embraced them. I'm not to sure that Greek and Latin should not still be required.

      You can learn morality without religion. Or you can learn morality in religions other than Christianity. A true Liberal Arts college should be open to any religion or to no religion at all; otherwise, you have restricted your ability to learn outside the box. Philosophy is about asking all kinds of questions, including uncomfortable questions such as: Is there really a God? @@ualaniwinter3095
