New! Second Editionspring

 

And Then There's This . . .

Jonathan Turley, The Fight Over Parental Rights Just Got Primal. “Few would believe that sending our children to a public school means we have transferred the most fundamental parental rights to ‘experts’ on rearing our children.”

Roger Kimball, What the Right Gets Wrong About Art. “Why do so many people feel that if something is regarded as art, they ‘have to go along with it,’ no matter how offensive, foolish, or corrosive it might be?“

Peter Wood, After College: The Coming Cultural Collapse of Higher Education. “Students graduate with a veneer of knowledge rather than a core. An increasingly obsolescent institution has wedded itself to an increasingly noisome cultural stance.”

Anthony Esolen, Heap Songs Upon Their Heads. “We are the most beauty-starved people, I am persuaded, who have ever trod the earth.”
