If We Want Western Civ Revitalized, We Can’t Leave It To Universities

Randolph Jason

If We Want Western Civ Revitalized, We Can’t Leave It To Universities By Nathanael Blake for The Federalist We should be less concerned with getting elite universities to rededicate themselves to teaching the Western heritage, and more focused on making Western culture a reality in our lives. An extensive National Review cover article by Andrew Roberts asserts that “we must teach Western Civilization.” He is correct that Western Civ should be taught, and not just as an exercise in the self-flagellation of critical theory.

Only Through Heroism and Sacrifice Can We Take Our Nations Back by Gregory Conte for Russia-Insider Men are lazy and weak. They are always looking for an easy way out. Much of the dissident right has, in the last couple years, succumbed to these vices.

Krumholz for The Federalist The higher education system is rotten to its core — economically, ideologically, and spiritually. Instead of tinkering around the edges, it’s time for conservatives to actually fix the root problems. Far too many pundits believe culture is upstream from politics. That might be true, but bad policy is often upstream of culture. And it is shocking how often Republicans use the “culture” trope as an excuse for long-running inaction and lack of…

Chapman for CNS News In a commentary about how the liberal media attacked Karen Pence for teaching at a Christian school, evangelical leader Franklin Graham said the “progressive” left is poisoning the nation and seeking to “harshly punish and completely silence” those who adhere to a “Biblical worldview.” “The hostility, bias, and ridicule of Biblical morality is blatant and obvious,” he said. “I promise that I will…
