\nThe \u201cReversing the Ideological Capture of Universities\u201d event took place on Oct. 21.<\/i>\n<\/p>\n

HILLSDALE, Mich.–(BUSINESS WIRE)–Hillsdale College\u2019s Academy for Science and Freedom held a day-long event on Oct. 21 titled \u201cReversing the Ideological Capture of Universities\u201d at its D.C. campus. The event was co-hosted with the Global Liberty Institute and the Salem Center for Policy at the McCombs School of Business at the University of Texas. It featured panel discussions on potential solutions for decreasing ideological restrictions on college campuses around the country.\n<\/p>\n

<\/a><\/p>\n

\n\u201cThe forum addressed one of the most important problematic issues of today, the failure of university education in its role as the center for the free exchange of ideas,\u201d said Scott W. Atlas, fellow at Hillsdale\u2019s Academy for Science and Freedom and co-director of the Global Liberty Institute.\n<\/p>\n

\nThe event featured five panels, titled: \u201cHow We Lost Humanities to Ideology,\u201d \u201cThe Woke Destruction of Data\u2010Driven Inquiry,\u201d \u201cThe Shutdown of Dissent in Science and Public Health,\u201d \u201cStudent Journalism and the Battle for On-Campus Liberty,\u201d and \u201cPolicy Ideas to Fix America\u2019s Universities.\u201d\n<\/p>\n

\nThe event\u2019s featured keynote speaker was James Hankins, a professor of history at Harvard University and the founder and general editor of the I Tatti Renaissance Library. Hankins spoke on the loss of the humanities to political or ideological methods of scholarship.\n<\/p>\n

\n\u201cLast Friday, a packed audience at Hillsdale College\u2019s Kirby Center heard a series of expert panels describe the alarmingly rapid collapse in recent years of academic freedom as well as professional and scientific standards in American universities,\u201d said Hankins. \u201cWe also heard heartening stories of personal courage in the face of cancellation and institutional persecution, and explored strategies for ending the ideological takeover of what used to be one of American democracy\u2019s greatest creations: its system of higher education.\u201d\n<\/p>\n

\nAtlas noted that \u201cThe university is critical to our country in so many ways, as it serves to educate America\u2019s next leaders as well as represents the source for many appointed experts who advise the federal government. The university environment must be repaired now. Our speakers not only exposed the problems that existing policy centers have failed to address, but the panels detailed a number of thoughtful solutions.\u201d\n<\/p>\n

\nAttendees heard from more than 25 other speakers and panelists, including panel chairs Atlas, Mollie Hemingway of Hillsdale College and The Federalist, John E.R. Staddon of Duke University, Bradley C.S. Watson of Hillsdale College, and Todd J. Zywicki of Antonin Scalia Law School.\n<\/p>\n

\n\u201cThe conference compellingly showed the fallenness of our universities: their ideological hostility to the hallmarks of Western civilization, including open discourse, scientific objectivity, and fair treatment of individuals,\u201d said Watson. \u201cIt also highlighted the extent to which our elites lack the moral virtue of courage \u2014 so even in the absence of ideological animus, we are unlikely to see a robust defense of the West any time soon.\u201d\n<\/p>\n

\n\u201cOn behalf of all three co-sponsors, we thank the outstanding group of leaders from academics, the private sector, and policy who contributed to this informative and provocative event. Hillsdale\u2019s Academy for Science and Freedom provides a unique opportunity for critical, thoughtful discussion for both the public and the policymakers of Washington, D.C.,\u201d said Atlas.\n<\/p>\n
