(1/13/09) proclaim through their mission a dedication to conservative values
Young America’s Foundation (YAF), an organization that promotes conservative ideas and values among youth, has released its fifth annual “Top Ten Conservative College” list. This year four Catholic colleges were listed in the ranking: Christendom College, Franciscan University of Steubenville, Thomas Aquinas College, and St. Vincent College. Thomas More College received an honorable mention. YAF wrote: “Many conservative students seek alternatives in higher education, but they may not be fully aware of institutions that fit these criteria. The 2008-2009 “Top Ten Conservative College” list features institutions that proclaim, through their mission and programs, a dedication to discovering, maintaining, and strengthening the conservative values of their students.” The Newman Guide to Choosing a Catholic College touts Christendom, Franciscan, Thomas Aquinas and Thomas More for their strong Catholic identity.
