I am not sure how I feel about this (not that they asked me, of course). I just wonder what Lewis himself would say. They certainly have a tremendous looking campus and I am sympathetic to a great books approach, but such a curriculum runs the risk of being too […]

UPDATE: I just noticed that this is my 2,000 post. Somewhat fitting, don’t you think? It combines all of my interests (aside from technology) into one post: comics, religion and politics, a delicious mélange! You all know my penchant for comics and politics so it is no surprise that when […]
