Here, they share a symbiotic relationship. Our tradition of academic excellence prepares you to respond to your unique calling. Likewise, our learning and living experience promotes a distinctly Christian worldview. Because at Grove City College, making the grade is not just about achievements in the classroom—it is about choosing to lead a purposeful, contributive life beyond the years spent on campus.
At The Center for Vision & Values at Grove City College, we view a love for truth and liberty as inseparable allies. Liberty cannot flourish long in the absence of truth, and the truth is not affirmed where liberty is denied. America's extraordinary achievement lies in the essential combination of both truth and liberty. Since 2005 we have worked to strengthen the faith and freedom foundation of American citizenship. The Center for Vision & Values is a leading forum for studying and applying freedom to economic, political, social, religious, and scientific issues.
