| Dear Supporter of Liberty,  I have been a huge fan of Hillsdale College for a long time -- and for good reason. They're the college that requires every student to take a course on the Constitution. Now, they're making it available to you just in time for the 2012 elections. You will learn from the same professors who teach their students on campus, including two sessions taught by my good friend, Dr. Larry Arnn. You can sign up right now at no cost! This is the kind of education every American needs, especially during this critical election year! Sincerely,  Sean Hannity  Dear American Patriot,Have you ever heard of a federal court decision or a piece of legislation passed by Congress and thought, "Is that constitutional?" Or, when you hear a candidate talk about religious freedom guaranteed under the First Amendment, do you wish you knew more about the meaning and history of the Constitution to understand their argument? How much do YOU really know about our United States Constitution? Would you like to take our Constitution Quiz and find out? Better yet, would you like to take Hillsdale College's no-cost 10-week online Constitution course, "CONSTITUTION 101"? This online course is based on the class that all Hillsdale College students must complete in order to graduate. In it you will learn about the meaning and history of the Constitution and be better equipped to defend the timeless principles of liberty upon which our nation was founded? We are proud that Forbes Magazine now ranks Hillsdale the 60th best college in America, the 7th best college in the Midwest, and the #1 college in Michigan. In fact, The Princeton Review ranks Hillsdale as the #1 conservative college in America. The purpose of the Hillsdale College "Constitution 101" online course is to teach all Americans, including Members of Congress, and other elected officials and leaders, about our Constitution and the principles of liberty that made America the freest, most prosperous nation in human history. This is what the College has been doing since its founding in 1844.  I invite you to take our "Constitution 101" online course, offered at no charge, and we will take you through the meaning and history of the U.S. Constitution.I am proud to be teaching part ofConstitution 101 and hope YOU will be one of my students!This course on the U.S. Constitution is being offered online and at no charge as a part of a major national educational campaign Hillsdale College has launched... ...because we want restoring the Constitution as the supreme law of the land to be what 2012 is all about. "Constitution 101" began on February 20, 2012, and concludes the week of April 30. IT IS NOT TOO LATE TO REGISTER FOR THIS COURSE, because it is archived online, you can view each lecture and the readings at any time.The course covers such topics as the Declaration of Independence and its connection to the Constitution, how the Constitution is structured to protect individual liberty and ensure good government. It is my honor to teach the first class, "The American Mind," and the final class, "The Recovery of the Constitution." All of the classes will be taught by Hillsdale College professors - the top teachers in their field and the same ones who instruct our students here on Hillsdale's campus.
AND take the Constitution Quiz In recent years, Hillsdale has worked hard to expand its educational outreach, teaching citizens and policy makers (especially members of Congress and their staffs) about the timeless truths contained in our nation's founding documents. This is a direct response to the way the Constitution is being ignored and violated by our government. After all, the Constitution is the supreme law of our nation, the framework by which our country should be governed. Its principles and structures are responsible for the greatest government in human history. Like you, I see the coming months as pivotal in the history of our country. And I am deeply concerned about the future. Will we as a nation succumb to bureaucratic despotism, or will we take a stand for liberty? The century-old attack on the Constitution, that continues today, has threatened to undermine our hard-won liberties, and is reducing Americans to subservience to an ever-expanding federal bureaucracy.AND take the Constitution QUIZ That's why Hillsdale College is committed to restoring and reviving the public's understanding of the Constitution, once again making it the central focus of American government. Over the years, many Hillsdale friends, even those who never attended college here, have commented to me: "Dr. Arnn, I wish I could take Hillsdale's Constitution course." In response to these requests, this past year, for the first time ever, Hillsdale College offered, at no charge, a condensed "Introduction to the Constitution" online lecture series. Frankly, I wasn't sure what sort of a response a course like this would have.However, more than 180,000 people from all over the United States registered for this program. I was thrilled, not only by the reaction, but at what it indicates: Americans are willing and eager to study and defend the founding principles that made our country so prosperous! This re-awakening of national interest in the Constitution comes not a minute too soon. ACTION STEP #2: Please include the best tax-deductible donation you can make to help Hillsdale College fund this vital project. The course, available at no charge to the public, is not without cost to Hillsdale. The College has already invested much to make this landmark course a reality. Hundreds of thousands of dollars have been committed to create and prepare the course for one of the most far-reaching webcasts in our history . . . and to mount a massive email, radio, and mail marketing campaign to enroll an initial ONE MILLION course registrants. To make "Constitution 101" available nationwide will cost nearly $1,000,000. While a monumental expenditure for Hillsdale College, it must be made if we are to reach as many citizens and elected officials as possible during 2012. ACTION STEP #3: Please forward this email to friends and family and encourage them to enroll in "Constitution 101." If our republic does not reverse course, we may not be able to reclaim the liberty that has been lost, and we will lose the liberty we still have. Hillsdale College has accepted this challenge, and our commitment to making "Constitution 101" available to citizens nationwide is proof. But we need your help to make this possible. . . You know, before coming to Hillsdale, I often wondered how a small liberal arts college in rural southern Michigan could, as Ronald Reagan once described it, "cast such a long shadow." The answer is simple. It can be found in adherence to our motto: Pursuing Truth and Defending Liberty since 1844. This phrase defines the purpose of the College, and gives life to the education we provide our students – which can now include you! Our mission and principles make it possible for Hillsdale to accomplish what many would consider unachievable for a school of our size, including:
Thank you for supporting the mission of Hillsdale College. Before I close, I would like to ask you please to consider honoring Hillsdale with a special gift to support our vital work at such an important time in our nation's history. Your generosity at this critical time will not just help underwrite the cost of making "Constitution 101" available nationwide. It will also support all the other ways that Hillsdale College educates Americans to be defenders of liberty and self-government.  In appreciation of your donation of $100 or more, I will send you a complimentary copy of my new book. Its title is:  THE FOUNDERS' KEY: THE DIVINE AND NATURAL CONNECTION BETWEEN THE DECLARATION AND THE CONSTITUTION AND WHAT WE RISK BY LOSING IT In this book I explain the unique connection between America's two most important documents, how that connection has been severed today, and why we must repair it for the sake of freedom.If your gift is $500 or more, you become eligible to have your name (or the name of a loved one you would like recognized) engraved on a brick on theLiberty Walk located on the Hillsdale campus. But even a gift of $25 will help ensure that Hillsdale can continue to reach millions with the message of liberty via Imprimis. . . educate our elected officials and their staffs at our Allan P. Kirby, Jr. Center for Constitutional Studies and Citizenship . . . run Hillsdale-sponsored events and lectures in cities all across America . . . and continue to educate the next generation of leaders without federal or state government subsidy, even indirectly in the form of student grants and loans. Your gift will help make it all possible. And for that I am grateful. And they must do so urgently. Please help Hillsdale College educate citizens on how to revive the Constitution and preserve America's tradition of individual liberty and limited government. Thank you for supporting Hillsdale College. Yours for liberty,  Dr. Larry P. ArnnPresident Hillsdale College P.S. PLEASE REMEMBER to do these three important things:
