Patrick Henry College opens in Virginia with home schoolers
In Loudoun County near Washington, Patrick Henry College launches with 1600 as enrollment target and no government aid. Founder Michael Farris, a former lieutenant governor candidate, aims to broaden the curriculum beyond government while maintaining religious admission rules. Students, largely self-taught by homeschool families, will stay with host families as dorms are built, amid concerns from public school advocates about limited exposure to diverse viewpoints.
