Past meets future:
Exploring the foundations of freedom

Our Mission
The Center for the Study of Government and the Individual (CSGI) exists to explore the constitutional, economic, political, and social foundations of a free, flourishing, and prosperous society, and to provide a vehicle for the candid discussion of the proper relationship between government and individuals. Our vision is a citizenry that is equipped for the challenges of self-government ahead of us.
Our Programs
Our multidisciplinary programs immerse participants in politics, law, economics, and education.
Our People
We are proud to boast a fast-growing faculty of world-class scholars and teachers.
“Knowledge will forever govern ignorance, and a people who mean to be their own governors, must arm themselves with the power knowledge gives.”
