- Hillsdale College is an independent institution of higher learning founded in 1844 by men and women “grateful to God for the inestimable blessings” resulting from civil and religious liberty and “believing that the diffusion of learning is essential to the perpetuity of these blessings.” It pursues the stated object of the founders: “to furnish all persons who wish, irrespective of nation, color, or sex, a literary, scientific, [and] theological education” outstanding among American colleges “and to combine with this such moral and social instruction as will best develop the minds and improve the hearts of its pupils.” As a nonsectarian Christian institution, Hillsdale College maintains “by precept and example” the immemorial teachings and practices of the Christian faith.
The College also considers itself a trustee of our Western philosophical and theological inheritance tracing to Athens and Jerusalem, a heritage finding its clearest expression in the American experiment of self-government under law.
By training the young in the liberal arts, Hillsdale College prepares students to become leaders worthy of that legacy. By encouraging the scholarship of its faculty, it contributes to the preservation of that legacy for future generations. By publicly defending that legacy, it enlists the aid of other friends of free civilization and thus secures the conditions of its own survival and independence.
As a truck driver currently, I love listening to the videos that Hillsdale posts on UA-cam. They turn my truck into a rolling classroom.
No thanks
I just joined and enrolled in some courses too! Here's to us !!!
Love it!!
I am so grateful for Hillsdale. My husband told me about the free courses. I read my Bible daily and pray Ephesians 1: 17-19 to increase my wisdom and knowledge in his word. 🙏🏻 Holy Spirit has been my best teacher by far. I also believe God uses others to help us learn his word. Thank you Hillsdale.
Real education is founded in the Holy Bible!!! God is the Author of every good thing!
Thank you for Hillsdale for the pursuit of truth and wisdom through Jesus Christ. May He bless America and turn our hearts toward God through faith and wisdom.
Our nation has been in serious rebellion against our great God and Savior Jesus Christ! 2 Chronicles 7:14 If My people, which are called by My Name, shall Humble themselves, and pray, and seek My face, and Turn (Repent) from their wicked ways, Then will I Hear from Heaven, and will Forgive their sin, and will Heal their land. We must turn back to God and His Holy Word, and pray to Him, and seek His face, and Repent of our individual and our national sins!
I love what Hillsdale stands for and support it whenever I can. ✝
I'm glad to see that thanks to colleges like this, some students are still getting a classical education
do you know any other college that provides free education on their website like Hillsdale? I love what they are doing. It's just amazing.
We need more places like Hillsdale, character building is an eternal investment, it will be nice to change sports (football, basketball, etc.) for trades like agriculture, welding, carpentry, electricity, etc. That would be more useful to the students and the Country.
Best college ever. I take online courses all the time. I donate every year. Thank you Hillsdale!
I had a classical education in Portugal and i had by far the best teenagehood one can dream of. In Portugal we have a school that takes you from 1st to 12th grade, so after 12 years you know your professors like family, and it was incredible. They had a good emphasis in character building, morality, civics and ethics.
How wonderful that system sounds you were fortunate. Thats so lacking in US education
If I ever have children, I will encourage them toward choosing Hillsdale College from an early age.
"Freedom, Faith, Learning and Character" - wow what a combination of values on which the college is founded! And their motto "Strength rejoices in the challenge". I wish I could be somehow part of this college. In a way, I am part of their college because I'm taking some of the amazing courses they provide for free on their website. I do recommend their courses to all of you reading this. It's amazing and free and you will get a certificate of completion too(for free). I want to thank the president of the college Pr. Larry Arnn for making this possible and continuing the legacy.
This video, this presentation of Hillsdale College made me misty-eyed!!
GOD Bless you all!!!
I'm a recent immigrant. A Buddhist. For me & my kids, Hillsdale is a perfect find to cherish the American dream. It cuts through the woke/left BS to think independently with common sense.
Oh, oh! Those words "woke/left BS"---makes me nervous. My impression is that Hillsdale wouldn't use that kind of language. Hope I'm not wrong. Guess I'll find out.
@@sallytwo How about 'Marxist indoctrination for elitist control of the masses', is that better?
Why in the world would you feel threatened by the term “woke?” In my vocabulary it simply means to “wake up” and see the world as it is. There is nothing left or right about it. It’s not political. It’s a spiritual awakening. Why would that bother you? Just asking 💜🙏🏼
If you really practiced Buddhist principles you would not have posted this narrow minded, aggressive statement.
@@borncrazynotstupid"Woke" and being awakened are very different. You're confused because you think they are the same. Those who claim they are "woke" believe in many immoral things that Christians do not partake in since it goes against the Bible. Being awakened is spiritual, not political. They are pretty much the opposite. If you are woke, then you are not awakened. If you are awakened, then you are not woke.
I just finished my first online class of The Great Principles of Chemistry and was pleasantly surprised at hearing the Psalmist mentioned. Loved this video on who Hillsdale College is and where it came from. Thank you.
Congratulations Hillsdale on celebrating your 175 Anniversary! Praying for your future example that it will remain strong.
I have 4 children and just yesterday I told my husband that I would rather they Not go to college because I went to a Christian college and even that was so messed up...but after watching this...I just might start a college fund for them...
Today is First day in my life As a Student of Hillsdale online College. Really I am happy to being Free Student of this Great College.
I enjoyed a general liberal arts college education in the '70s that taught me no marketable skills unless I'd gone on to be a preacher. I regret not a minute of it. Thinking critically is a skill that has to be taught. It's sorely lacking these days.
Agreed, as a student of the 70's, you are so right - Thank you Hillsdale
Hillsdale: The world needs this - continue being a light for illuminating the paths we need to follow to be knowledgeable God followers!
Today, where semantics mean everything, the term "liberal arts" is getting to be a term that has a negative connotation - for some it is a term which defines what the ungodly is using to educate young adults away from God. Is there another term we can use to give comfort to those who are averse to want anything to do with "liberal arts"? Because the actuality of what you are doing is exactly what is and needs to be done!
My son just started high school/grade 9. He's in a Christian prep school. They partner with Hillsdale for requirements. I can't wait until my son attends Hillsdale! This was the education I had in the 1980/1990s at KU.
My son is in Classical Conversations homeschool, 7th grade. I hope to see him at Hillsdale one day. What is KU, Kansas ?
Education is supposed to be about teaching the student how to think and equipping them with the tools to do so. My dad stressed English and math because they are two of the tools used to think and communicate those thoughts. I discovered a love for other languages and embraced them. I'm not to sure that Greek and Latin should not still be required.
Awesome, I hope to go there next year!
I will continue to support Hillsdale College and its programs. Thank you Hillsdale College.
Such a moving video, I need to learn more about this institution, the Lord opens doors for a reason, you have to take the step, sometimes with help, this video has inspired me to learn more and see what I can learn, what a blessing, thank you!!
As a United States Army Airborne veteran and social worker I enjoy the free "course American Citizenship and Its Decline".
Wow! All along I have never had any understanding of Liberal Arts Colleges and what it entails. This short video planted many questions in my mind and I'm up and doing in search of answers.
I just signed up for an online mathematics course. I'm looking forward to learning.
Wonderful comments about a great Institution Hillsdale! Thanks
I am so grateful for this opportunity to take free classes online 🙏 ❤ This is not only because I can't afford to attend college, it is because I am a Christian and have always wanted to attend a Christian College. I follow Kaci on UA-cam. She mentioned how much she loves Hillsdale College and told us that it was available for anyone to enroll. I instantly went to the website with the link she provided us and signed up. This is so exciting to me. I'm in the process of rearranging my busy schedule just to accommodate Hillsdale. My prayer time, my courses, and study time are going in my planner as the first priority. Thankful so much to Hillsdale College for this once in a life time opportunity. ❤😇
Thanks Hillsdale !
I would love to see Hillsdale become the influential college in America.
Dear Hillsdale
Thanks for posting the Citizens class online.

Inspiring, informative, and independent. I enjoyed it.
Perspective. I've learned of these four beyond rough strives through decades somethings to detest, but that I do not regret. Beyond my by commanding harnessing, to tenacious choose aim true on lifetime history all by disciplines built of fact true reason gives my view of 'reception.' Workhorses of Character, Faith, Learning and _____ by Love and Hillsdale prespective, A Supersede Stampede a little wiser.
This is what integrity is all about.

I wish I would have known about this place when I was getting ready to go to school. I grew up on the East Coast and never heard about it. They need to advertise more.
Awesome
I look forward to the free online courses and hopefully other courses in the future.
Amazing
Hope! Encouraging video 🙏
Amen to Hilsdale College courses! I just joined a course after a long search on Christian courses that were very expensive and this is free! I am looking so forward to learning with you😅
At one time in the United States of America you had to be able to read write and communicate in English,Latin and Greek to graduate from High School
yeah, in the 1800's
I graduated from a public high school in Southern CA in 1984. In 1980 they cut the Latin curricula… I felt gypped!
now there is a college that i would like to visit and count on.
I love Hillsdale Biblical teachings; really gets you to open up your mind and think on an in depth level.
If I'd only known...
Amazing!!
amazing backstory...
Very impressed.
Is there anything like Hillsdale in Canada?
excellent
Wow
👍🇺🇸👍
All the negative comments keyboard warriors dedicate to Hillsdale, is enough to know you are in the right place.
I am a well educated, Professional Educator. In an. aReligious school. (a school that does not include any religion) -- It is
wonderful to watch Learning Growth, and Facilitate it. It does NOT need Religion. Human Beings are remarkable-- they do not need
Religion. to accomplish. I noted it took until the 9th minute of a 11.5 minute video to admit to the Religion bound up in this.
There is a reason that our Constitution says "No Establishment of Religion"
No Education requires Religion.
I agree that religion isn't required. I do, however, think that religion brings much to the table. Just one example is that religion brings morality. There are other examples, but I'm trying to keep the brief. That being said, religion should not be discounted so easily, if at all.
You can learn morality without religion. Or you can learn morality in religions other than Christianity. A true Liberal Arts college should be open to any religion or to no religion at all; otherwise, you have restricted your ability to learn outside the box. Philosophy is about asking all kinds of questions, including uncomfortable questions such as: Is there really a God? @@ualaniwinter3095
Agreed an organized trligious belief systens not required in the sense you probably mean. But the foundational character traits and values that are the underpinnings are what is desperately needed in education and character building.
WHEN HILLSDALE TALKS ABOUT FAITH AND FREEDOM THE'RE TALKING ABOUT TAKING YOURS!
Shalom, Selam, and Hello Brother's and Sister's. ❤🌸🙏🏽🙌🏽🧎🏾♀️👑✨️
What is that motto, " Strength, rejoice, challenge ______ "? They went to fast I couldn't hear it correctly.
Strength rejoices in the challenge…
@@michaelbarnett2527 Thanks
Well gents are there minister degrees available too? That was one of the reasons signed up for Ancient Christianity classes that and to deepen scriptural understanding. Back at school at 59 who wdve figured

God is love .How 🎉is love practical?
I would suggest loving your neighbor would decrease hate crimes. Doesn't that make it practical?
I don’t think you mentioned Jesus Christ once.
Freedom from who
Anyone notice Mike Pence?
Without faith one is doomed to a life of less ignorance
Without atheism one is doomed to a life of less nihilism and meaninglessness.
And without something to stand for one falls for anything.
Liberal
We Need Trumpism
99% of comments sound phony
That may say something about you and may want to ask yourself what is it about the comments that you would interpret them as such. A predisposition or uncomfortable feeling.
Is Hillsdale a trump supporter
Good question. If it is anchored in GOD, there is no such thing as politics. But this college, I suppose, has governmental principles that come from the sons of Cethim. There is nothing wrong with learning from others, however.
How can Hillsdale College have the word "Character" in its motto and still support a man like Donald Trump?
Because they support Trump's ideals and principles of honor, honesty, truth, equality and accountability. These values and traits may not be reflected in the man himself because he's a flawed human being himself. But those are his values and what he aspires to and strives to live by however short he may fall. You dont have to like his personality or demeanor.
TRUMP 2024. GOD, ALWAYS AND 4 EVER
