GROVE CITY, Pa. – Grove City College is one of 10 colleges and universities lauded as an “Excellent American College” by the Free Congress Foundation. It is the first such list the foundation has compiled.
A number of factors were taken into consideration for the listing. They include: an institution’s support of truth and teaching of personal responsibility, support of Western civilization, rigorous academics, high-quality faculty and well-rounded graduates. Previous rankings with other respected organizations were also taken into account.
“The (Grove City) campus is old and beautiful, it has its own unique Greek system, admissions standards are very high, the student body is intelligent and it is one of the most affordable private colleges in the country,” the report reads. “A student fortunate enough to attend will get one of the finest classical liberal educations available.”
Also included on the list were Hillsdale College, Thomas Aquinas College, University of Dallas, Franciscan University of Steubenville, Christendom College, Benedictine College, Belmont Abbey College and The Catholic University of America. The list also includes a number of “emerging” colleges and universities.
The Free Congress Foundation is a conservative Washington, D.C.-based think tank.
