The strength of a foundation is measured not by the size of its endowment but by the impact and importance of the projects it helps create and support. By that measure, the Teagle Foundation has been and remains among the most consequential foundations in the world of higher education.
Teagle initiatives including Cornerstone: Learning for Living, Knowledge for Freedom, and Transfer Pathways to the Liberal Arts are helping to keep the humanities alive and to introduce the virtues of a liberal education to students from all backgrounds. They are attracting interest from some of the most gifted faculty members in colleges and universities across the country and serving thousands of students.
It is a great privilege to work with Andrew Delbanco and the remarkable Teagle staff to ensure that liberal education — education for living in a condition of freedom — remains woven into the fabric of higher education and our country.
