This month we are pleased to post their accolades in the National Assn of Scholars. Hillsdale’s Common Reading Program by David Randall [31] Aug 28, 2018.

The National Association of Scholars analyzes college common readings throughout the United States in our annual Beach Books reports (nas.org/projects/beachbooks), which we have been publishing since 2010. We criticize the large majority of common reading programs for choosing modern, mediocre books. Hillsdale College’s common reading program, by contrast, chooses classic, excellent works. We thought you’d like to know more about what Hillsdale does.

Hillsdale College’s summer readings are designed to initiate incoming freshmen into its distinctive approach to education. Since its founding in 1844 by Free Will Baptists, Hillsdale has been committed to America’s founding principle of liberty. Fundamentally, Hillsdale believes that a liberal arts education is designed to liberate the human person. Hillsdale’s curriculum teaches a willing acceptance of the discipline and virtue that enables students to live a fully human life and prepares them for self-government and civic participation. The College’s two summer readings introduce students to this life of liberty and virtue.

                Bottom line: “We are the best deal Physicians can get from a statewide physician based organization!”

Our motto, “omnia pro aegroto” means “all for the patient.”

The Texas Chapter of AAPS held its first official meeting May 21, 2016.  The chapter elected officers and board members and approved the chapter’s bylaws.

Texas needs a strong, conservative physician in the Senate who will be willing to stand up against the status quo in the face of encroaching government control of the practice of medicine. . . Dr. Buckingham, endorsed by AAPS, succeeded in making the runoff for the senate race in Texas SD24! She is prepared to tackle head-on the problems faced by private physicians and work to restore the integrity of the patient-physician relationship

The AZ Senate Committee of the Whole (COW) gave the Interstate Medical Licensure Compact bill, HB 2502, a “Do Pass as Amended” (DPA) recommendation.  There are several good things in the amendment [42]:
It prohibits board certification from being required for licensure through Arizona’s existing licensing process.
It directs the Arizona Medical Board to develop its own expedited licensure process for physicians wishing to avoid Compact licensure.

It prevents Compact licensure from being required as a condition of employment.
