American colleges, the custodians of our shared heritage, have a responsibility to transmit that heritage to the next generation.

The Jack Miller Center aims to address this problem by supporting, cultivating, encouraging and increasing the number of young faculty members who wish to devote their careers to teaching tomorrow's leaders about our national heritage.  It does this through:  

Summer Institutes:  These institutes give young professors and advanced graduate students an opportunity to come together for two intellectually stimulating weeks.  Led by renowned and respected scholars, institute fellows participate in seminars on selected topics in American history, political thought, or economics, and attend workshops that assist them in developing courses, securing tenure, publishing and long-term professional advancement.    

Academic Centers: The Jack Miller Center supports academic centers on college campuses dedicated to teaching America's founding principles and history through lectures, conferences, workshops, graduate student and post-doctoral fellowships, sponsorship of visiting professors and publishing and archival projects. The Miller Center is supporting a growing national network of centers.
