"But there is one more point to be made about faith-based colleges like Earlham. One thing that is largely unreported these days is that most supposedly Christian or evangelical colleges have become just as rotten as the worst secular universities. Scratch a supposedly 'faith-based' college, and you'll find nearly all of their leading sentiments fall in line with today's secular left. I recall visiting George Fox College in Oregon a few years ago--like Earlham, a Quaker-affiliated school that is supposedly different from secular universities--and being harangued by a deep leftist professor from the philosophy department about Foucault. You will find this at Gordon College, Wheaton, etc, etc. I've known a couple of very liberal graduates of Earlham tell me they found the political correctness of the place to be stifling, and consequently that their humanities instruction there was gravely defective. If this is what's on offer from supposed faith-based colleges, you might as well just save your tuition money and send your kid to Evergreen State."
