North Korean Defector Outlines Struggles of Leaving Children Behind

Don’t expect the word “communist” to join the host of adjectives that precede the word “studies” in academe. Genuine studies of communist oppression don’t fit the academic narrative. At a Heritage Foundation panel discussion recently, Kim Jeong-Ah, founder of Tongil Mom, spoke through a translator to detail the human rights situation of North Korean defecting […]

Thanksgiving Still Remains on the American Calendar, For Now

Interestingly, Thanksgiving has remained relatively unscathed as progressives try to remake the American calendar. Maybe they because don’t want to blow a four-day weekend. I did have an oddball professor—it does sound redundant—35 years ago who protested the holiday by dining alone in the kitchen. It didn’t occur to him that no one minded. “Thanksgiving […]

Government Persecutes For Profit Colleges

Can it be that the federal government has been waging war on for-profit colleges because, with all their problems, they still make traditional institutions of higher learning look bad? For example, the Obama Administration famously created a “gainful employment” rule for for-profits to follow in which they would be barred from receiving Pell grants if […]
