Based on evidence

I’d say NOT GUILTY...!

Well, I hope she is taking courses from Hugh Akston, and not Dr. Robert Stadler.

I have to say, when I read the name of the university, I thought, “wasn’t that the name of the school that John Galt, Francisco, and Ragnar attended?”

I live in Purcellville, a small town with a population of around 3500 people. Until now our “famous face” resident was Madeline Halfbright. This is definitely an improvement and much easier on the eyes.

Yep. Although theirs was Patric Henry University, rather than College.

There is an article somewhere at one of the Rand / objectivist websites discussing if Ayn based PHU on PHC. Embarrassed to admit that I can’t remember the conclusion of the article for certain, but I think the connection was tenuous, at best.

One of the very, very few decent colleges left in America.

I hate to say this, but her midsection looks rather masculine (and barely noticeable hips).

I’d forgotten that the name of the university in Atlas Shrugged was Patrick Henry. It couldn’t have been named after this Patrick Henry College, which was established by and mainly for homeschool students only 13 years ago.

But, it’s interesting that the evangelical Christian Patrick Henry College and atheist Ayn Rand’s fictional university share the same name. She was a fan of Patrick Henry, too.
