As America reaches its 250th year, Dr. Harmon and Mark Brumley consider the importance of civics education and great books programs to bolster the future of the country.

Dr. Thomas Harmon teaches at the University of St. Thomas, and he joins Mark Brumley to talk about the recent endowment given to the university to establish a new initiative aimed at developing good Catholic citizens. This initiative uses the Great Books (including our Constitution) as well as a seminar style of teaching to teach students to ask the right questions and pursue good answers. He and Mark also focus on the potential usefulness and challenges of artificial intelligence and what it means to be a good Catholic in America.
