Who need college anyways?

Whiskey Cavalier

ChiComs Ruin Everything
AmConMag: How China Drained Hong Kong of Its Color by CG FEWSTON
Despite brave protests, it’s becoming just another third-tier city on the Chinese coastline.
The author uses an opposition between "self ego" and "collective ego" (or individualism and collectivism) as a basis for talking about differences in values but what's important is that any British legacy for Hong Kong in terms of self-governance will be stamped out.

Benedict Option & Christian Resilience By ROD DREHER
Ancient Faith Radio: Chastity, Purity, Integrity
What is still missing? A robust communitarianism that gives the principles necessary for community-formation and maintenance. That is a key to the ecclesial problem of the local Church, and the political problem of the state.

Why Bother With the Classics?
CWR Dispatch: “Yours Is The Wisdom”: Pagans, Doctors, and Fathers by Jerry Salyer
To ask why Christian students should bother reading Cicero when they have Saint Augustine is a little like asking why babies should bother learning to talk when they could be learning to sing.

What Future for Higher Ed?
CWR: Bonfire of the Humanities: The Moorings of Academy Adrift by Anthony E. Clark, Ph.D.
