Hillsdale College Constitution 101 Class Offered Free Online
hillsdale.edu ^ | 2/10/12

Posted on 02/10/2012 11:04:37 AM PST by christianhomeschoolmommaof3

“Constitution 101: The Meaning and History of the Constitution” is a 10-week online course presented by Hillsdale College.

Featuring an expanded format from the “Introduction to the Constitution” lecture series with Hillsdale College President Dr. Larry Arnn, Constitution 101 follows closely the one-semester course required of all Hillsdale College undergraduate students.

In this course, you can: • watch lectures from the same Hillsdale faculty who teach on campus;

• study the same readings taught in the College course;

• submit questions for weekly Q&A sessions with the faculty;

• access a course study guide;

• test your knowledge through weekly quizzes; and

• upon completion of the course, receive a certificate from Hillsdale College.

You must register in order to participate in Constitution 101. Even if you have already signed up for a previous Hillsdale webcast or seminar, we ask that you complete the simple registration process for Constitution 101. There is no cost to register for this course, but we ask that you consider a donation to support our efforts to educate millions of Americans about our nation’s Founding documents and principles.

"After submitting your registration information, you will receive a confirmation message and an email with instructions about logging-in to this site and viewing the webcasts."

I signed up when Mark Levin was promoting this months ago. I never got any email response. Yes it is possible that I mistyped my email address but I am usually very careful about that.

I just registered again and once again I did not make a contribution for the course. I got an email response this time ("Thank you for registering for Constitution 101! This program will begin on February 20, 2012.") -- the last time I did not but I did recently get a first ever email from Hillsdale asking me to purchase The U.S. Constitution: A Reader

The class is free but they do ask for a donation if you are able. They don’t take federal money and are supported by their student tuition and donations.

Glad you are registered now! See ya in class. ;)

Thank you so much for posting. I know two young men who are going to be so excited to take the class. Hahaha, lots of sarcasm there.

Now that I’m signed up I wonder if we could sign up others. Say Barrack Hussein Obama, members of Congress, our bottom feeding socialist friends and relatives....

Their drop-down for “How did you hear about us?” doesn’t have an entry for FR.

Well they need one. I heard about them on Sean Hannity sometime last year.
