'''Patrick Henry College''' (PHC), named for the [[Founding Father]] who immortalized the phrase, "give me liberty, or give me death," is an institution of higher learning founded by [[conservative]] [[Christian]] [[constitution]]al [[lawyer]] Mike Farris, with the intention of creating a prestigious college to prepare [[evangelical]] [[homeschooling|homeschooled]] students for public service. The school is committed to Christian values and morality, which permeate academic and social aspects of campus life, and Farris' students often describe the school as "[[Harvard]] for Homeschoolers."

'''Patrick Henry College''' requires a specific statement of [[faith]] from its students and its faculty. In 2006, several faculty members resigned in conflict over the statement, but their positions were quickly filled by others.
