GROVE CITY, Pa. – The Young America’s Foundation has again recommended Grove City College as one of its Top Ten Conservative Colleges in the country. This is the fifth year the Foundation has constructed such as list, which seeks to rank the overall experience that colleges offer.
The Young America’s Foundation presents its list of 10 institutions that offer a holistic conservative experience for students. Besides Grove City College, the list also includes: Hillsdale College, Franciscan University, Indiana Wesleyan University, Thomas Aquinas College, College of the Ozarks, Liberty University, Christendom College, Saint Vincent College and Harding University.
According to the Foundation, “Many conservative students seek alternatives in higher education, but they may not be fully aware of institutions that fit these criteria. The 2008-2009 ‘Top Ten Conservative College’ list features 10 institutions that proclaim, through their mission and programs, a dedication to discovering, maintaining and strengthening the conservative values of their students.”
The foundation created the list to address a frequently asked question. The listed colleges were chosen because they allow and encourage students to explore conservative ideas and authors. The institutions also offer coursework on the tenets of Western civilization and conservative thought, and emphasize principles of smaller government, strong national defense, free enterprise and traditional values.
The Young America’s Foundation is an organization that seeks to ensure that young Americans understand and are inspired by the ideas of freedom and values. It is the principal outreach organization of the conservative movement and introduces thousands of American youth to these principles through conferences, seminars, educational materials, internships and speakers.
