About us
Macalester Alumni of Moderation believe a liberal arts education is enhanced by differing points of view shared freely on campus. That includes moderate and conservative political views too. What we see in Macalester’s various publications indicates Macalester has a bias toward leftist views on socio-political issues, and that moderate or conservative students feel the heat of that bias. Please join the Mac Mods in our almost 20 year quest to protect free expression at Macalester College.
Our goals
DIALOGUE: Grow a culture that supports free speech at Macalester.
POLICY REFORM: Encourage Macalester to adopt the University of Chicago's Principles on Free Speech.
CONNECT ALUMNI: Provide opportunities for disaffected alumni to invest in Macalester's future.
SPREAD AWARENESS: Encourage articles on the Mac Mods' mission in Macalester Today.
