I went back to college as an adult to the University of Dallas. It has a classical core and is specifically Catholic. I got a great education. What I wanted was to acquire the kind of knowledge that our Founders got when they attended the early years of Yale and Harvard. I did get that, well, without having to learn Latin and debate my professors in that language, although that aspect was available.

I learned how to think and write, plus I got enough knowledge to be able to defend my faith.

U of Dallas is a fantastic school. My oldest daughter graduated from UD in 2011. They offer the Rome semester in the sophomore year and unlike most study abroad programs, they really are very academically rigorous and carry a full courseload while there, on their Rome campus. It was a wonderful experience, and we continue to donate to the school because we feel so strongly about it.
