Eric’s appointment as Distinguished Presidential Fellow at Cornerstone
The upcoming Leadership Forum and Chapel address in Grand Rapids
President Trump’s proposed “Compact for Academic Excellence” and how it challenges elite universities to uphold equality, free discourse, and institutional neutrality
