Defending Civilization: How Our Universities Are Failing America and What Can Be Done About It
Authors: Jerry L. Martin, Ph.D., President, ACTA
Anne D. Neal, Executive Director, ACTA
It was not only America that was attacked on September 11, but civilization. We were attacked not for our vices, but for our virtues-for what we stand for. In response, ACTA has established the Defense of Civilization Fund to support the study of American history and civics and of Western civilization. The first project of the Fund is Defending Civilization: How Our Universities Are Failing America and What Can Be Done About It. The report calls on college and university trustees to make sure their institutions offer strong core curricula that pass on to the next generation the legacy of freedom and democracy.
