Nearly six months after ending his Republican presidential campaign, former Vice President Mike Pence landed a new teaching job at Grove City College in Pennsylvania.
In a statement posted last week, the conservative Christian college said it was establishing a Center for Faith & Public Life “to support the presence of Christian faith in public institutions.” Pence will help launch the initiative, serving as the Distinguished Visiting Fellow.
“The appropriate role of faith in the public square is a major issue in this moment of our American life,” said Grove City College President Paul McNulty. “The Founders envisioned a free society sustained by a self-governing citizenry and strengthened by virtues rooted in religious belief. At the core of Christian faith is the call to do justice, love mercy, and walk humbly with God. The Center will examine how and why Christians have sought to put their faith into action for the common good.”
Judeo-Christian values are coming under increasing attack in America, the statement noted, and the new initiative will bring awareness to the vital and historic relationship between public life and faith, and how faith can be integrated into public policy as well as other sectors of society.
“Mike Pence is the perfect choice for the Center’s first fellowship,” McNulty said. “No one has pursued this calling more sincerely than the former vice president. He is an extraordinary role model for what it looks like to lead with wisdom and winsomeness in public life, and he will be a leading source of thought leadership and an impactful voice of the Center.”
Pence, who was on campus to address a conference held by The Institute for Faith & Freedom, said it was his "great honor" to serve in the position.
“Faith and engaging in public life are not mutually exclusive, nor should they ever be. History shows that Christians steadily working toward the common good have changed the world, and Grove City College opening a center shows they are committed to continuing this work.”

RE: Not referring to Hillsdale
So, you know Hillsdale then. Well Grove City College, like Hillsdale is one of a handful of Colleges that REFUSES to accept Federal funding. ABSOLUTELY ZERO.
It has been in existence since 1870. Grove City College falls within the top 12% of colleges and universities for PayScale’s Best Value rankings. This ranking considers factors like starting salaries, mid-career earnings, and cost of attendance. Even during the height of the mortgage crisis, over 94% of their graduates found good jobs within 6 months of graduation.
It’s tuition fees are also one of the most affordable in the country at just $21,700 per year (as of 2023-2024 academic year).
And Haley at the Hudson Institute.
Neocon, RINO, uniparty puppets getting by all around.
Yes, GC is independent, no federal money so they don’t have to adhere to title IX and whatever other nonsense DC pushes. I had wanted their to go there, but she went to the Sekulows alma mater :)
RE: she went to the Sekulows alma mater
Jay Sekulow graduated from Mercer University as far as I can remember. Mercer accepts Federal money though.
The only scripture I’ve seen Pence take to heart is Mathew 5:39:
“But I tell you, do not resist an evil person. If anyone slaps you on the right cheek, turn to them the other cheek also.”
It would have been nice to see more righteous fight from this guy.

I appreciate the info but my initial comment was jokingly referring to the scene in the dirty dozen where Donald Sutherland - posing as a general tells a soldier that he never heard of his home town.
Going to teach about how to aid and abett a stolen election?
Surely he’ll be offering a course on how to get elected despite being an obvious closeted homosexual.
Mike 30-Pence could play a mean Judas for this “conservative Christian college”.
Do they worship Judas at that school?
Meanwhile down in Dante’s Inferno, Brutus, Cassius and Judas himself are making room for their soon to arrive new neighbor.
He got fired. Then got a job transporting and cleaning portable toilets at outdoor events. Lasted a week.
Now this.

Color me disappointed. Grove City just made a huge error in judgement.
I’m from Indiana and have watched Pence for at least 35 years. (He had a radio talk show here.) He makes me sick to my stomach.
He is the janitor at his local high school?
Mike Pence finds out how much he sucks he couldn’t land a lousy democrat D.C. gig.
