WHY 3 CREDITS IN WESTERN CIVILIZATION AND AMERICAN VALUES?

You can earn three college credits from Bellevue University for the online course “Western Vision and American Values” that most colleges and universities will apply toward your graduation requirements. 

Students learn:

·         That our Founders are not just “dead white males”;

·         how government, markets and society work;

·         the basis for freedom and responsibility;

·         why a virtuous people is necessary  for a working market and government;

·         that racism and sexism and homophobia are not what America is about.

George Washington knew that materialism and self-centeredness were not sufficient, but that responsibility, liberty, morality and even religion were indispensable to a good social order. Even Thomas Jefferson, who was a deist, knew that rights have no meaning if there is not a Creator from whom they derived and who guarantees them. 

Our “Western Vision and American Values” course will give the student the intellectual tools to survive in a challenging university and work environment. This course is taught through the Socratic questioning method that develops in you the ammunition to be a smart, effective leader.

“Western Vision and American Values” is a great intellectual and moral investment.
