Hillsdale College: Flourishing Without Government Funds

A recent issue of Imprimis, a monthly one-article publication from Hillsdale College with a wide distribution and readership, gave a very readable history of the college. As an atheist I really have no interest in the school's religious aspects (it was formed by Freewill Baptists in 1844, though has been "non-denominational" since its inception). But what I find praiseworthy and remarkable about the school is its refusal to accept government funding -- neither direct federal aid or even indirect aid in the form of student aid from the government. As a result, it remains free of government interference as well. This proves that it is possible to do: always has been possible and remains possible today. This article in Imprimis tells their tale nicely... keep up this principled stand Hillsdale!
