- Sir Roger Scruton, a British philosopher, author, and conservative intellectual, passed away on January 12, 2020. Hillsdale College was honored to have Sir Roger speak at our 2012 Commencement ceremony, in which he advocated for the importance of a liberal arts education.
In a sane world his passing should have been on page one of every newspaper in the West. RIP.

Sir Roger is precious to us all,not only as a British philosopher but also as a insightful、warm-hearted global intellectual.
Time will prove his view and wisdom.
A man of dignity and consciousness.
Thank you for helping us in this world with uncertainty.
Condolence from PRC,may the Almighty rest his soul.
God Rest His Soul.
So sorry gone at 75.
That is devastating....we needed this person for at least another ten years to continue his work.
I loved his dry humour, his brilliant mind and his love for beauty and goodness. He also had a great head of hair. R.I.P. He will be sorely missed.
Truly a man that received Gods spirit of wisdom! May he rest in peace! In Jesus I pray.
His is sadly missed and will be more and more.
What a eloquent way to State the institutions of our country how they've deteriorated. I especially like the part where he was talking about women studies at University.
So Sorry, God Bless Friends and Family
His voice will be missed - it is so needed in this political climate of manufactured moral panic and postmodernists intersections intellectual bankruptcy.
The intersectionalist project, when it has run its full course, will have atomized the nation down the level of the individual, which is where the rest of us STARTED. But the damage they do catching up, busily re-inventing the wheel, and "discovering" yet another subset of a subset of a subset of an oppressed group...
Love Him read his book.
I am devastated.
Oh! I'm only finding out about his death now, four days later, kind of like with Neil Peart. 2020 is having a rough start. R.I.P.
Christopher Tolkien just passed away today too.
He also gave a wonderful lecture at an Art and Architecture CCA, probably 2011? I'd love to listen to that one again!
The Guardian comments on Roger Scruton are disgraceful. If there are any bigoted people in the world they work for the Guardian!
On planet Guardian every day is opposite day.
One of the few intellectuals of our time
Such a brilliant mind will leave a vacancy that will hard to fill - he should be a standard of study for young conservatives - thank you Sir Roger Scruton - you will be missed!!!
Mark Smith conservatism is just idiotic
a brilliant mind, but also a warm, inspiring soul - capable of reaching many outside the ivory tower w/ his generosity of spirit. god bless him and his family.
I had no idea he died. Wow, what an incredible loss of knowledge and intellectual integrity.
So sorry to his family 💖🇺🇸
RIP Sir Roger
Speech is reminiscent of Revelations 2:9, 3:9.
Why would you quote a book that encourages slavery?
Alan u mad?
I want to say a heartfelt, sorry. At University he was demonised as a bigotted right-wing bigot. Years later I came to wonder at his brilliant mind, calm measure approach and belief in all things British that entranced me. I will miss him as a window to the world. God bless.
RIP
Facts + Evidence < Muh Narrative.

I see how it is. You turn off the comments to controversial garbage you post. Probably because you don't want to hear the real facts. Doesn't surprise me.
Gawd rest his women-hating, partially asian "soul."
Says the truth hating partially human "troll"
