The King's College is not offering a liberal arts education, any more than the Empire State Building Observation Deck is offering a cross-country tour. We are offering something more specific than the liberal arts: we're offering a philosophically and theologically informed examination of the nation's (and the world's) key institutions. (Can we explain it better than that? Yes, but you have to pay tuition to get the full program.)

Obviously, this is an unusual approach to undergraduate education. And students seeking a program that they can explain easily to their friends are probably stuck with the line, "I'm studying God, Money, Power and Culture." But offering an unusual approach seems exactly the right thing for our time and place. We want to prepare students to challenge, to change, and to improve our culture. We don't take that as a vague mandate to (somehow) go out and change everybody's values. We think it takes people with deeply informed understanding of the key institutions, razor-sharp intellectual abilities, inexhaustible energy, and spiritual grace. We want students whose hearts are in the right place, but who don't think that's enough: they want their heads in the right place, too.

A college with this kind of ambition and willingness to buck the established formulas of American higher education couldn't thrive in very many places. It is one of a kind and instantly recognizable. It belongs where it is: right here in the center of New York City.
