The study of American history and the history of western civilization is a must for any citizen of the United States. I was very upset to hear that it is possible to graduate from some ivy league colleges without a single course in either area.

That is not only a shame it is a tragedy.

The objective of my US history course is to generate a sense of pride and accomplishment in the grand experiment that is America.

Students need to know our past and how it relates to who we are as a nation today.

The ideals of patriotism, loyalty, honor, and sacrifice should be in the minds of our youth as they take their place in society
