Eureka College plans to offer a four-day “Reagan 101” course next week.

Former House Speaker Newt Gingrich will be among politicians, journalists and authors who'll take part in the examination of the late President Ronald Reagan's life at the college about 140 miles southwest of Chicago.

Indeed, sounds like a great idea. In a similar vein, you can find marxist and communist classes by the boatload at any university, but where are the classes dedicated to the history and concepts of Liberty, Freedom and the defeat of Tyranny? Hillsdale College has “Constitution 101” and now “History 101” for free. Others need to follow. This failing is one of the reasons the commies have set their hooks so deeply into our nation the past 90 years.

You need a course in microeconomics in which Adam Smith, Hazlett, Milton Friedman, and Thomas Sowell are required reading. And another course dedicated to a skeptical treatment of macroeconomics.

” In a similar vein, you can find marxist and communist classes by the boatload at any university,”

The left took over the administration of most universities by the early 1980’s. They then carefully screened all applicants to insure only leftists would be hired. I got this info straight from the horse’s mouth. My mother and father were both college professors.

"Everything good that has happened in my life, began at Eureka College."
