An excellent place to learn by Guest G. via Judy's Book on 7/26/2013
I am a recent graduate of Shimer College, and recommend it in the strongest possible terms. From the rigorous Great Books curriculum to the unique structures of self-governance, Shimer offers a true alternative to the mass-produced norm…
Highly recommended by Guest G. via Judy's Book on 7/24/2013
As a graduate of the great books program at Shimer, I highly recommend it. With its intense academics and engaged community, this is indeed a school that prepares its students for "active citizenship and the examined life."
