American Miseducation

The recent surge in antisemitism on campuses has shed light on the crisis unfolding at American universities. The Jack Miller Center partnered with The Free Press to tell the story of what's happening on America's college campuses.

We believe this American Miseducation documentary shows why pushing back against hate begins in our schools and universities. It’s time to replace these reductive political ideologies with a liberal education grounded in the ideals of freedom, tolerance, and human dignity—the ideals at the heart of our tradition as a free people in the United States.

"Our father’s antisemitism was the centuries-old hatred of Jews just because they were Jews, different in their beliefs and customs. But this new form of antisemitism is different, and there are reasons why we’re seeing it revealed on our college campuses today."

The Next Step for Disaffected Donors
Hans Zeiger // Law and Liberty

"It is clear by now that American higher education is in crisis. To find solutions, funders must do more than close their checkbooks to institutions that have proven disappointing. They must also find ways to support the recovery of liberal learning, with its positive commitment to veritas—

the Latin word for truth that is enshrined in the motto of Harvard and numerous other American universities. "

Embracing Civics Can Help Restore Trust
in Higher Education Justin Dyer// National Review
|
|
"At the dawn of a new year, administrators, professors and students of elite universities stand raw and exposed before an increasingly dubious public.
While university leaders appear weak and aimless and students ideologically adrift, it would be a mistake to give up on our universities. They are too important to freedom in America."

The Jack Miller Center is an educational venture committed to solving the crisis of uninformed citizenship by teaching America’s founding principles and history. We aim to expand the pipeline of scholars dedicated to teaching America’s founding principles and history, to seed and cultivate college campus centers for the study of the American political tradition, and to advance the teaching of American citizenship in K-12 schools centered around our history and foundational texts.
