The difference is in how they are taught. The students are allowed to approach the subject critically. This school is a direct challenge to academic orthodoxy. This is exactly what you would expect with a faculty that includes David Mamet, Peter Boghossian and others. You can learn more about the school at

Thank you for posting this. The University of Austin is going against the censorship and wokism that is otherwise smothering academia. I am so disappointed with a number of the responses. Some people just can’t get off their script.

I was expecting it to be a course entitled the Bible as Literature or Western History or Biology or something along those lines.

The people banning books or canceling courses are NEVER the good guys.
