I had a very weird college experience.
My memories aren’t of frat parties, of slugging down drinks in games of quarters or beer pong, of losing my voice cheering at big football games, and of hearing how evil Western civilization is in the classroom.
Instead, when I think of my four years at Thomas Aquinas College, I think of drawing Euclidean propositions on a chalkboard, of lively debates about Aristotle’s claims about ethics, of earnest discussions about things as obscure as the nature of being.

Their ultimate goal is to shut down all Christian colleges.
A Catholic college spokesman said the following:
“We are not asking the LGBT community to change who they are. We are simply asking that they do not force us to change who we are either.”
If SB 1146 becomes law, religious colleges will be forced either to change or tell their students they do not have access to the same funds as their peers in California, just because they want to attend a religious college.
CA should remember what happened to Sodom & Gomorrah!
Do without the state funds and while you’re at it cut out the Federal funds, too.
Hillsdale College does it and they don’t have to obey idiotic state and Federal laws as a result.
TAC is a comparatively young college. They haven’t had time to develop an endowment big enough to provide all the needed financial aid.
But that has got to be the goal for such schools. Caesar’s wrath is rising.
Why can't these morons see that what we are doing is NO DIFFERENT than totalitarians have done for eons.
You will submit or there is NO soup for you!
I believe TAC does eschew government aid in the same manner as Hillsdale. The problem comes in with the Cal Grants for students. This is a new tactic - the government disqualifying students from grants and loans unless they attend lefty colleges. It’s a round-about way of forcing the schools to bend, or they will lose significant numbers of students.
Cal Grants are only good at “eligible” schools. The money is not given to the student but instead is sent to the school - assuming that the school parrots the appropriate government-approved leftist dogma.

Rather than work to destroy civil society, government should encourage its growth.
Agreed.
Just go Hillsdale...and give the state the boot.
