ABOUT SCOTT MASSON

I am a university literature professor committed to Christian liberal arts education. In today’s educational market, mine is not the mainstream approach.

I maintain nonetheless that a Classical liberal arts education is not a small tributary emptying into the vast river of educational possibilities, but the source from which the mainstream has diverged. Without it, the mainstream waters are growing muddy, and will eventually run dry.

The purpose of this site is to equip people with resources to return to the ancient paths of wisdom and virtue. As C.S. Lewis once put it:

“We all want progress, but if you're on the wrong road, progress means doing an about-turn and walking back to the right road; in that case, the man who turns back soonest is the most progressive.”
