Unabashed Vanity - My son just received his acceptance letter to Hillsdale College

Our family is very proud and excited about our son's early decision acceptance to Hillsdale College to attend in the fall of next year. He's also earned a nice academic merit scholarship that we desperately need. We'll figure out how to pay for the rest of it.

Couldn't be prouder or more hopeful about his future.

Congratulations!! If I did not listen to Rush, I would not know that by going to Hillsdale your son will not be subject to being indoctrinated by liberal professors who do not even realize how misinformed they are!

From Wikipedia:

Hillsdale College is a co-educational liberal arts college in Hillsdale, Michigan, United States. National Review has described Hillsdale as a “citadel of American conservatism.”[2][3] Most of the curriculum is based on and centered around the teaching of Western culture as a product of both the Greco-Roman culture and the Judeo-Christian religion. Hillsdale requires every student, regardless of major, to complete a core curriculum that includes courses on the Great Books and the U.S. Constitution.[4]

Congratulations!
