Teachers teach as they are ordered, and the minds of youth are shaped in the pattern directed by the government. But thissisenotecatotalitarian state. «his is tree America. Here, in a Classical High School, whose purpose is liberal education, whose very name suggests the best that man has thought and said and done, we are mindful of our high calling.
