Education and Freedom: Defending the Family and Western Tradition - Jeffrey S. Trimbath

What kind of education is required to sustain a free society? On this episode of The Anchored Podcast, Jeremy Wayne Tate, founder of the Classic Learning Test (CLT), sits down with Jeffrey S. Trimbath, President of the Maryland Family Institute, to examine the deep connection between classical education, family formation, and self-government. Jeffrey draws on his experience in public policy, education, and family advocacy to argue that a democratic republic depends on citizens who can govern themselves—and that kind of formation does not happen by accident. From the decline of grammar schools to modern education experiments, this conversation explores how cultural and educational shifts shape freedom itself. If we cannot govern ourselves, someone else will. Topics Covered in This Episode: Why self-government depends on moral and intellectual formation The role of classical education in preserving a democratic republic How modern schooling departed from the grammar school tradition Family, virtue, and the Western intellectual inheritance Education policy, parental rights, the issue of euthanasia, and cultural formation About Our Guest Jeffrey S.
