I know sometimes, when you watch or read the news, it can feel like nothing is improving in this country. You’re not alone in your frustration.
That’s why I’d like to share some good news that you might want to know as a Hillsdale supporter and friend, and that YOU helped make possible…
Once again, The Princeton Review announced its 2024 top college rankings…and you can find Hillsdale College listed as one of the top colleges in the country and ranking #3 most conservative students and #2 most religious students.
You can read our complete ranking profile on the list: https://www.princetonreview.com/college/hillsdale-college-1022659
This ranking is especially humbling because we maintain complete independence from all forms of government funding, even indirectly in the form of student loans or grants. EVERY PENNY.
We receive no government-subsidized student loans. No taxpayer-funded grants. No bailouts. NOT. ONE. PENNY of taxpayer money.
Many liberal arts colleges around the country struggle with retention, admissions, and, as a result, funding and revenue—even with millions of dollars of government funding.
One prominent Christian liberal arts college recently shut its doors this summer, closing temporarily, if not for good, due to lack of money. Many others are in dire straits financially.
BUT, because of you, Mr. Neudecker, we’re able to tell a different story about Hillsdale College. Applications to the College have increased by more than 50% in the last ten years.
This is pretty unusual.
Many Americans are waking up to the indoctrination happening on college campuses. So, it’s no surprise that most colleges and universities have experienced a DECREASE in admissions in the last decade.
Today, more families than ever would rather send their children to Hillsdale College.
That’s why we’re so thankful for you!
I know that any gift you make is a sacrifice and that when times are tough, it’s even more difficult to be generous. So, I’m happy to remind you that your support truly means a lot to us, especially during these difficult financial times. And your support is reaching and teaching millions of people about the Constitution and its underlying principles of liberty!
This Princeton Review ranking underscores how blessed we are to have friends like you who stand with us on the battlefield of education. Thank you!
Gratefully yours,
Bill Gray, ’01
