Russell Kirk understood his work was to convey to America’s rising generations an understanding of the process by which a healthy culture is transmitted from age to age. We’re continuing this important work through Kirk on Campus as we host important conversations about the permanent things on campuses across Michigan. We hope you’ll join us at an event, and help us prepare tomorrow’s leaders with an appreciation of the richness of the conservative intellectual tradition.
Sincerely,
Jeffrey Nelson
co-founder, The Russell Kirk Center
