Hillsdale College has a three-point plan to restore the principles of liberty in our once-great nation. This plan is already underway! Here are the details:<\/strong><\/p>\n

    \n
  1. Teach college students<\/a> the principles of liberty underlying the Constitution<\/a>\u2014based on the idea that rights come from God, not government\u2014which are necessary for the free enterprise system<\/a> to flourish in America<\/a>, and send wave after wave of them into influential positions in government, the economy, and our culture.<\/strong><\/li>\n
  2. Educate<\/a> millions of Americans about the principles of limited, constitutional government so they are equipped to defend those principles, leading to a restoration of liberty. The College<\/a> achieves this through Imprimis<\/a><\/em>\u2014sent to millions every year\u2014and online courses such as \u201cConstitution 101: The Meaning and History of the Constitution.\u201d<\/strong><\/li>\n
  3. Host seminars and training sessions for policy makers and opinion leaders in Washington, D.C. about the Constitution and its principles of liberty. The College achieves this through the work of its Kirby Center on Capitol Hill<\/a> in Washington, D.C.<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    Hillsdale does all this<\/strong> while refusing even one penny of government money\u2014even indirectly in the form of student grants and loans\u2014because it doesn\u2019t want bureaucrats in Washington, D.C. telling them what to teach, who to hire, or who to admit for enrollment.\u00a0 <\/strong><\/p>\n

    We need more colleges like this in America.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
