Why I came to Hillsdale: Honestly, I had no idea Hillsdale existed and I only visited so my grandparents would stop pestering me about it (after all, if Rush Limbaugh constantly talks about it, the school must be good). After visiting numerous other colleges (big, small, public, private), I knew there was no college better suited for me than Hillsdale College. The academic rigor is unmatched, professors and faculty take the time to know their students, and students are more than just a number. Hillsdale has allowed me to grow spiritually and intellectually while instilling a deep passion for learning those things that are truly Good, True, and Beautiful.
