Liberty in College
Check out the latest information on courses offered at colleges and universities across the United States. Our continuously updated list lets you know where it is possible to pursue an education in liberty. We strongly advise all students to check with colleges and universities, before applying, to verify that the courses and programs you want are being offered.
Arizona
The Philosophy of Freedom Program at the University of Arizona, provides students with a two course sequence in the philosophy of freedom.
California
The Salvatori Center at Claremont McKenna College’s mission is to “develop close relations between students and scholars.” They host a regular speaker series and students can become research assistants and fellows at the institute.
Nebraska
The Center for American Vision and Values at Bellevue College conducts the Kirkpatrick Signature Series. This series consists of 9 credit hours of required core courses: American Vision and Values, Tradition and Change, and Freedom and Responsibility.
Pennsylvania
The Center for Political and Economic Thought at St. Vincent College has fellows and staff who also teach regularly at the college. While the Center does not offer specific classes, it seems a fair bet that ideas on liberty make their way into the professors’ classes. This center also offers scholarship and internship opportunities for undergraduate students.
South Carolina
The Clemson Institute for the Study of Capitalism lists the “(d)evelopment of courses that will explore the moral, constitutional, legal, economic and political foundations of a free society” as part of it’s mission.
Virginia
The Program in Philosophy, Policy, and Law is an undergraduate major at the University of Virginia that “provides undergraduate students with an opportunity to pursue intensive study of the connections between political philosophy and legal theory, legal thought and historical change, law and public policy.” Here students will have plenty of opportunities to learn about liberty while being thoroughly challenged in the process.
West Virginia
The Institute for the Study of Capitalism and Morality at Wheeling Jesuit University offers a Political & Economic Philosophy major as well as a student fellows program and essay competition.
