Bring the Ideas of Liberty to Your Alma Mater
Imagine helping students at your alma mater, but withoutworrying
that your money is promoting politically correct ideas. What if you
could ensure that students from the school you love learn about the
ideas of free enterprise, limited government, and individual liberty?
With a gift of $5,000 or more, you can establish a Liberty on Campus
fund for the college or university of your choice. This fund will enable
students and professors from that school to participate in the unique
educational and career programs offered by IHS.
The Institute for Humane Studies works with students and professors
around the country. Over the past three years, thousands of students from
more than 800 different colleges and universities have benefited from IHS
programs, including scholarships, educational seminars, online programs,
academic career workshops, and individualized mentoring. IHS also offers
grants to professors to conduct freedom-advancing programs on their
campusessuch as debates, reading groups, and extracurricular seminars
all promoting a deeper appreciation for the ideas of a free society.

Heres How It Works:
Your contribution of at least $5,000 establishes a Liberty on
Campusfund for the school of your choice.
IHS selects interested students and professors at that school to
participate in our programs throughout the year.
If there are no IHS-supported students, or not enough of them, at
your school, well change thatincreasing our marketing on that
campus to attract more students to IHS programs.
IHS works with freedom-friendly professors at that school to host
events for students and to help these professors have greater
influence on their campus.
In September, IHS will report back to you on the number of
students and faculty and the programs they participated in, and
give you a spending report on your fund.

IHS Is Changing Students Lives
As a junior at Stonehill College, Lexxie Monahan benefited from IHSs
distinctive programs.
Today, Lexxie is actively promoting the ideas of freedom, working at an
organization called Students for Liberty. And there are many students
like Lexxie on every campus. Help ensure that students at your alma
mater, local college, or another school of your choice have a chance to
be inspired by the ideas of liberty by establishing a Liberty on Campus
fund for the school and students you care about.
IHS changed my life! I was campaigning for
Obama when I went to one of your weekend
seminars at my school. I was so intrigued, I
attended an IHS seminar the next summer.
You got me totally hooked on the ideas.

IHS Is Transforming Higher Education
IHS supporter Bob Spaulding treasures his alma matera notable
liberal arts collegebut stopped giving to them because he observed
an increasing lack of intellectual diversity on the campus. The stakes
are clear, as Bob wrote recently:
To restore intellectual diversity and balance on college campuses, Bob
supports IHSs strategy to transform higher education by reaching
millions of students with our unique educational offerings, cultivating
more professors who share our passion for freedom, and boosting the
efforts of thousands of freedom-friendly professors in the IHS network.
The real cost of four years in a politically correct
environment is borne by the students themselves.
With classes in victimology, with professors and
an administration that are relentlessly
progressive, and with media and campus
speakers possessing a similar mindset, students
are denied the liberal education, in the classic
sense of the word, that they deserve.

Going to college isnt the same anymore, and its not just
the tuition thats changed. College used to be a place
where students and professors openly explored diverse
ideas and philosophies.
But today something is missing on most college campuses:
a fair hearing for the ideas of Americas unique political
tradition. In far too many college and university classrooms
today, Americas founding history and philosophy get
short shrift. And students certainly arent learning about
the economic principles that create and sustain prosperity.
As a result, we see young people embracing politically
correct ideas that are taught widely in todays universities,with painful consequences for the future of freedom and
prosperity. We might still cheer for our colleges sports
teams, but its hard to feel the same about whats going
on in the classroom.
