Dr. John C. Hagan is a longtime supporter of The Fund for American Studies. He became involved with the organization because of its focus on young people. According to Hagan, introducing centrist and conservative teachings and values into the far left milieu of most universities, especially in the field of journalism, is an important part of TFAS programs.

Hagan’s initial support was a result of his general disappointment with the media.

Many journalists have long forsaken their profession to become liberal propagandists,” said Hagan.

According to Hagan, children are being indoctrinated as early as kindergarten and first grade, and it only intensifies when they go off to college, which is why he feels TFAS is an important organization with a critical mission.
