Persephone University College is nor progressive neither conservative and does not endorse any specific political party.

P/UC stands for freedom of speech, opinion and expression. As such, the mindset at P/UC is embracing the Austrian school  of economics.

Your political views and preferences are none of our business – as simple as that.

You do you, and we care about are your grades, your progress, your improvements as a student. We welcome intelligence and respect achievements – that is what matters at P/UC. We are a meritocracy and leave your beliefs, opinions and lifestyle choices up to you.

If you wish to know how one of our professors thinks on a certain issue, you are free to ask them directly. You are also free to disagree with them. Persephone UC explicitly allows every adult individual to have his or her own opinions, even and most especially when we disagree with them. As long as an individual’s actions do not harm others or limit the freedom of other people, they shall do as they please.

If in doubt, consider what Dr. Thomas Sowell described as “common decency” and use that as your guide for action.

Silencing dissidents is what totalitarians, despots and tyrants do. We don’t. We appreciate different opinions and views and encourage tolerance , not censorship – that we see as a form of violence.

Furthermore, we strongly encourage an open mind and the ability to learn, improve and change an opinion when new and better information comes along. Blind insistence and zealotry is for fanatics, not for scholars.

If you struggle with the concept of allowing an adult individual to make their own decisions and live with the consequences, you may want to do some reading, especially on history. Particularly that of China, Germany and the USSR during the 20th century.

We are not afraid of getting overthrown because we don’t operate on behave of those who enslave, control, force and oppress. We are not governmental and not paid by government either – Persephone University College is truly and fully independent.

With the very best regards,

Prof. Kai H. Kayser
