education_inflation_sm

Listen to our Call for Freedom from November 17th 2009, where we discuss that many people praise the Federal Government for its role in granting millions of Americans the opportunity to seek learning at institutions of higher education. Join us as we pull back the curtain and show how these seemingly gallant practices are undermining the viability of our bastions of learning, both economically and socially. And how government interaction in education is actually hurting the students its supposed to be helping.

Join us for a lively discussion and prepare to re-examine potentially some of your own deeply held beliefs about education and how it relates to the proper role of government.

Presented by: Randall Hinton and Thomas Dyches
