I don't recall if there was a thread about this or not. Regardless, here's a very interesting video from the Dark Horse podcast.

Note what they say around 7:45 about federal funding and the takeover of wokism in colleges.

I take it that is Bari Weiss?

They are eggheads but they seem sincere in their mission.

I like the quote "Education not Indoctrination".

I have a coworker who's daughter goes to Hillsdale College in MI, it appears to fit the non-woke (aka real free speech) mold but may have a religious affiliation.

Bret Weinstein and Heather Heying (married). They taught at Evergreen State. The school planned "A Day of Absence" where white people were supposed to leave campus. Weinstein objected.

Hillsdale is a regular advertiser on the Mark Levin radio show, I believe... so my guess it's very much got a religious affiliation, as well as since it's been up, been very oriented toward "constitutional learning the correct way" (not the woke way).

Hillsdale is a Christian Conservative Liberal Arts College that does not accept Government Funding. They are big on history and the Constitution. Just teaching students how to learn, not what to learn.

Correct. Hillsdale refused government financial assistance because it comes with strings attached such as affirmative action policies. They require all students to learn about the Constitution and read classic literature.

Keep in mind that local school districts take federal money and are likewise required to do what they're told. This is why our education system is in the crapper.


Though I am for school choice, this is one reason I hesitate to support it. What is the likely outcome of private schools accepting students using government funded vouchers?
