Bring the Ideas of Liberty to Your Alma Mater

Imagine helping students at your alma mater, but withoutworrying

that your money is promoting politically correct ideas. What if you

could ensure that students from the school you love learn about the

ideas of free enterprise, limited government, and individual liberty?

With a gift of $5,000 or more, you can establish a Liberty on Campus

fund for the college or university of your choice. This fund will enable

students and professors from that school to participate in the unique

educational and career programs offered by IHS.

The Institute for Humane Studies works with students and professors

around the country. Over the past three years, thousands of students from

more than 800 different colleges and universities have benefited from IHS

programs, including scholarships, educational seminars, online programs,

academic career workshops, and individualized mentoring. IHS also offers

grants to professors to conduct freedom-advancing programs on their

campusessuch as debates, reading groups, and extracurricular seminars

all promoting a deeper appreciation for the ideas of a free society.

Heres How It Works:

Your contribution of at least $5,000 establishes a Liberty on

Campusfund for the school of your choice.

IHS selects interested students and professors at that school to

participate in our programs throughout the year.

If there are no IHS-supported students, or not enough of them, at

your school, well change thatincreasing our marketing on that

campus to attract more students to IHS programs.

IHS works with freedom-friendly professors at that school to host

events for students and to help these professors have greater

influence on their campus.

In September, IHS will report back to you on the number of

students and faculty and the programs they participated in, and

give you a spending report on your fund.

IHS Is Changing Students Lives

As a junior at Stonehill College, Lexxie Monahan benefited from IHSs

distinctive programs.

Today, Lexxie is actively promoting the ideas of freedom, working at an

organization called Students for Liberty. And there are many students

like Lexxie on every campus. Help ensure that students at your alma

mater, local college, or another school of your choice have a chance to

be inspired by the ideas of liberty by establishing a Liberty on Campus

fund for the school and students you care about.

IHS changed my life! I was campaigning for

Obama when I went to one of your weekend

seminars at my school. I was so intrigued, I

attended an IHS seminar the next summer.

You got me totally hooked on the ideas.

IHS Is Transforming Higher Education

IHS supporter Bob Spaulding treasures his alma matera notable

liberal arts collegebut stopped giving to them because he observed

an increasing lack of intellectual diversity on the campus. The stakes

are clear, as Bob wrote recently:

To restore intellectual diversity and balance on college campuses, Bob

supports IHSs strategy to transform higher education by reaching

millions of students with our unique educational offerings, cultivating

more professors who share our passion for freedom, and boosting the

efforts of thousands of freedom-friendly professors in the IHS network.

The real cost of four years in a politically correct

environment is borne by the students themselves.

With classes in victimology, with professors and

an administration that are relentlessly

progressive, and with media and campus

speakers possessing a similar mindset, students

are denied the liberal education, in the classic

sense of the word, that they deserve.

Going to college isnt the same anymore, and its not just

the tuition thats changed. College used to be a place

where students and professors openly explored diverse

ideas and philosophies.

But today something is missing on most college campuses:

a fair hearing for the ideas of Americas unique political

tradition. In far too many college and university classrooms

today, Americas founding history and philosophy get

short shrift. And students certainly arent learning about

the economic principles that create and sustain prosperity.

As a result, we see young people embracing politically

correct ideas that are taught widely in todays universities,with painful consequences for the future of freedom and

prosperity. We might still cheer for our colleges sports

teams, but its hard to feel the same about whats going

on in the classroom.
