BELMONT — Ever wondered how rights and freedoms shape our society?
Belmont Abbey College is offering a free online video course, “Rights and Freedoms,” designed to explain these crucial concepts.
This course offers an enriching educational experience tailored to foster informed citizenship. Beginning with the Bill of Rights’ historical significance and the balance between freedom of speech and religion, the course dives into thought-provoking topics such as the philosophical implications of how rights are discussed, the true essence of freedom, and the vital role of congressional committees in preserving liberty.
The videos feature political experts and scholars including: Nina Shea, senior fellow and director of the Center for Religious Freedom at the Hudson Institute and former member of the U.S. Commission on International Religious Freedom; Robert Smith, president of the Thomas More Society of America and deputy chief counsel of the U.S. Senate’s Oversight Committee for Commerce, Science and Transportation; and Dr. Tom Varacalli, assistant professor at Belmont Abbey College.
