March 2020 – Hillsdale College dedicated its new Christ Chapel last October, a tangible tribute to the Hillsdale, Michigan, institution’s recognition that Christian values are imperative to keep a nation strong. U.S. Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas spoke at the dedication.
“The construction of so grand a chapel in 2019 does not happen by accident or as an afterthought,” Thomas said. “Christ Chapel reflects the college’s conviction that a vibrant intellectual environment and a strong democratic society are fostered, not hindered, by a recognition of the divine. Hillsdale College affirms with the writer of Proverbs that ‘the fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom.’”
