Dear Friend of the Constitution,



The far Left in America is attempting to rewrite our nation’s history and
undermine our Constitution—with a special emphasis on eliminating the Second
Amendment.



Today, you’re receiving Hillsdale College’s Second Amendment Survey because
you’re someone who understands that education is essential to the defense of
liberty.



We are reaching and teaching millions of Americans about the importance of
liberty, and we are doing this without accepting even ONE PENNY of government
funding.

Your timely survey answers will help us reach and teach millions of our fellow
citizens in the coming year about the importance of liberty—which includes the
rights protected by the Second Amendment.



There is no question that one of the Left’s most powerful tools in its ongoing
effort to undermine our liberty isignorance.



Here at Hillsdale, we have been pursuing truth and defending liberty since the
College was founded in 1844.



Today our educational outreach efforts include programs on a variety of topics
essential to liberty, such as the Second Amendment.



As constitutional scholar Edward J. Erler observed in Imprimis, our digest of
liberty that reaches millions of Americans: “The Second Amendment is an
expression offirst principles.”



This means the Second Amendment is essential for the preservation of freedom.
If we are denied the means of defending our freedom, we will eventually lose
our freedom.



This kind of thinking is foreign to most college and university campuses
today, where “safe spaces” are now commonplace, and shooting clubs are nearly
extinct. Here’s an example…



Not long ago, the University of Virginia canceled its traditional 21-gun
salute on Veterans Day.



Why?



The administration was concerned that firing guns in honor of those who served
their country and did their part to defend our freedom would cause “panic”
among the student body.



Unfortunately, there are many more such examples I could cite to illustrate
the disastrous effects of the ongoing decline in civics education in America.



But instead of just TALKING, it’s more important to DO something about it.



That’s why we have been working to expand our educational outreach efforts on
behalf of liberty.



And this work continues today.



That’s why I would like your answers to our brief Second Amendment Survey. You
can complete the survey today at this secure link:

We believe that an educated citizenry is essential for the preservation of our
liberty. As Ronald Reagan said, “Freedom is never more than one generation away
from extinction.”



Do you agree? I hope so.



This is why we reach and teach millions of Americans about the principles of
liberty and the Constitution. It’s also why we need your help today.



As I mentioned, Hillsdale refuses to accept ONE PENNY of government
funding—not even indirectly in the form of federal or state student grants or
loans. This frees us from much burdensome and corrupting federal regulation.



Our independence from the government means that our work is entirely dependent
on the generous support of citizens like you, who understand the importance of
education to liberty.



It also means your gift really matters.



Today, you have a great opportunity to help preserve liberty—including the
Second Amendment—for future generations.



After completing your Second Amendment Survey, please join me in the cause of
liberty with your generous tax-deductible gift today.



And, when you give a $100 gift or more, we’ll send you a special,
limited-edition Hillsdale College hat as our thank you.



This hat commemorates our partnership with USA Shooting, the organization
dedicated to preparing the best American shooters to represent our country in
the Olympics and Paralympics. But hurry—supplies are limited!



Thank you for your time and attention. I look forward to receiving your
completedSecond Amendment Survey.





Warm regards,





Larry P. Arnn

President, Hillsdale College
