Line 1: − + − Wheaton College has perhaps the smartest student body among evangelical colleges, but professors and graduates associated with Wheaton sometimes defend [[abortion]] or advocate the [[theory of evolution]]. − For example, one presentation at Wheaton on the topic of [[abortion]] makes no mention of the medical and psychological harm that abortion causes to the mother, omits and distorts religious, Biblical, and economic arguments against abortion, uses deceptive terminology of abortion supporters, and conceals how abortionists do not fully disclose the adverse effects of the procedure to the patients.<ref>http://www.wheaton.edu/Biology/faculty/ppp/pdf%20files/abortion%20presentation%20biomed.pdf</ref> The executive director of [[Emily's List]], which channels tens of millions of dollars to pro-abortion politicians, is a graduate of [[Wheaton College]] and has been picked amid criticism by [[conservatives]] to be President-Elect [[Barack Obama]]'s communications director.<ref>http://www.politico.com/news/stories/1108/15886.html</ref><ref>http://www.ewtn.com/vnews/getstory.asp?number=92367</ref> Other famous Wheaton alumni include [[Billy Graham]] and former US House Speaker [[Dennis Hastert]].<ref>http://www.wheaton.edu/admissions/UndGrad/about/beamer-herald.htm</ref>+ − On the [[theory of evolution]], a Wheaton professor promotes belief in the theory despite its fundamental conflict with Jesus's redemptive sacrifice.<ref>http://www.wheaton.edu/ACG/essays/moshier1.html</ref>
drop attacks on this conservative stronghold
'''Wheaton College''' is a [[liberal]]-leaning institution of higher education that was originally founded on [[Christian]] principles. It has about 600 students per grade and costs about $31,000 per year (including room and board). It is located in Wheaton, Illinois, which is a town west of [[Chicago]]. In contrast with [[Grove City College]] and other [[conservative]] schools, Wheaton College uses the tenure system that makes it nearly impossible to fire professors who push for [[liberal]] indoctrination.
