Hello there. This is Mark Bauerline with another conversation. Before we get to it, a word about one of our sponsors.

Located in the foothills of Wyoming's spectacular wind river range,

Wyoming Catholic College, an accredited four-year Great Books Institution

is built on the ancient Western tradition of the liberal arts

and the freedom of the American West.

The college offers its students an immersion in the primary sources of the classical tradition,

the grandeur of the mountain wilderness, and the primary sources of the classical tradition, the grandeur

of the mountain wilderness, and the spiritual heritage of the Catholic Church. Students experience

the illumination of imagination and intellect through the great books and traditional disciplines,

with its seniors last year and welcomed its largest freshman class ever this year. Learn more

about the college's unique space in the world of American higher education at Wyomingcatholic.edu.
