Considering Christian Colleges
03/23/23 • 49 min
Are Christian Colleges compatible with liberal arts learning? Do these colleges restrict students with regard to both their intellectual and social life? What role do Christian colleges play in the contexts of academia and the larger culture? Join Tom Kennedy, Abbie Vegter, and Mike Bailey as we consider these questions. Also, we bid a fond farewell to and bestow gifts upon two of our guests: Tom, who is cementing his retirement and moving away from us, and Abbie who will be temporarily leaving us while on maternity leave.
