“Students move from all over the country—and world—to come to Hillsdale, a small town of fewer than 10,000 people. I think this reflects the seriousness of their studies and desire for full immersion into political philosophy and American politics, inside and outside the classroom.”
Christina grew up in Southern California. She moved to Hillsdale from Colorado, where she worked as a consultant with American Philanthropic, a national strategic consulting firm working to strengthen civil society. She has also played in the violin section of the Boulder Symphony and the Glens Falls Symphony Orchestra.
