More misuse of agency power. Criminal democrats continue their standard behavior.

Its not a “real School” because they don’t give stand alone teaching degrees without making sure you learn something else. Its not a “real school” because it doesn’t take taxpayer dollars. It’s not a “real school” because the feds have virtually no control over them.

It’s not a “real school” because it teaches its students to think for themselves.

It’s not a “real school” because it trains its students to think critically.

It’s not a “real school” because it inculcates a love of classical learning.

The horror!

Well, Denise, there is only one possible measured response to your assertion that Hillsdale is not, in some mystical fashion, a 'legitimate' four-year college.

That response is the punchline to the old joke about G-d and Michael the archangel solving the problem of creation of human genitalia. You'll have to look that joke up for yourself; I prefer not to violate common decency (as well as Free Republic's code of conduct, most likely) by citing it directly.

I'm not going to give you a commercial here, Denise. You are quite obviously too bound up in your preferred childlike version of political correctness. Equally clear, you being a bureaucrat and all, you resent the fact that you and your ilk have no mechanism of control over Hillsdale, due principally to their utterly correct refusal to accept any "federal" dollars.

I have, as it happens, had the privilege of lecturing in the economics department at Hillsdale many times, and their students have, uniformly, seemed to me to be of open mind generally, and damned smart individually. You, contrarily, have not had such an opportunity; you have simply parroted your masters' sentiments in your statement mentioned in this article.

There is an old story about a young kid on a kid's after-school cartoon show, a local program, who, when told to push the button to start the cartoon, encountered the unlucky fact that the cartoon wouldn't start. The young kid, apocryphally perhaps, is supposed to have said, "Aw, crap." whereupon the host, usually related as one 'Corky the Clown' is supposed to have reprimanded him, saying, "Michael, that's a Corky No-No!"

The young kid's response to the host's statement is really all the response you deserve, to wit, "Cram it, clown"

We need a list of all the colleges not featured on the Obama administration's "College Scorecard." Maybe that will tell us what the best colleges are.

You know I have a list of American Presidents and obama isn't on my list because I don't consider him a Real American President. And I believe my statement is 100% more factual than the obama flunkies.

I’m not surprised that Liberty U was not included.

It wouldn’t surprise me if the best three years of Obama’s life was the 3rd grade.

Not just Obama, but much of the Federal Government basically views conservatives as enemies

“Hillsdale is a predom­i­nantly certificate degree granting institution,” Department of Education spokeswoman Denise Horn told The Collegian

Utterly false statement,and the Department of Education knows it. They still resent that we beat them in court years ago.

Hillsdale does what it does without government money of any kind, and the government resents that greatly. Government money equals government control, and no government money equals no government control.

As a former Collegian reporter and columnist, I would have challenged the Education spokescretin strongly. I would have followed up with a series of questions that would put her on the spot.

But then, I once challenged Bill Bennett at CPAC about the Department of Education's harassment of Hillsdale.

Hillsdale College, a 1,500-student liberal arts college in Michigan

Wow, the place has grown! There were only about 1,100 of us when I was there.

In other words, the Department of Education is implying Hillsdale isn’t a genuine four-year school.

Tell that one to the accrediting bodies.

Pretty good football team, too. They’ve been in the Division II playoffs several years recently.

Hey, Denise — excuse me for bursting your bubble, but I have a B.A. and on the top it says “Hillsdale College”. Explain that!
