I'm delighted to report that I have joined as a scholar, the Declaration of Independence Center for the Study of American Freedom at the University of Mississippi.

The center offers educational opportunities, speakers, internship, and reading groups for the University of Mississippi community.

It is named in honor of the United States founding document,

which constitutes the nation as a political community

to encourage exploration into the many facets of freedom. It will sponsor a speaker series

and an interdisciplinary faculty research team. If you'd like to learn more

about the center, please visit Olmiss. That's O-L-E-M-I-S-S dot EDU slash independence slash.
