because they are a means to help people. The education
in ideas, leadership training, and real-world organizing
experience that SFL provides people as students lays
the foundation for them to go on and become leaders
of liberty at all levels, in all fields. I have been saying
this for some time, but now, I am excited to show you
what this means through the profiles of just a few of our
alumni.
We know that liberty is the right political principle.
What the liberty movement needs most is more people
and more leaders advancing that principle. We don’t
need just one type of leader; not everyone needs to
go into “Industry X”
(which you can fill in
with your choice of
careers). What matters
most for the future of
liberty is that people
recognize that liberty is
worthy of them, so that
no matter which field
they go into, whether it’s
politics, nonprofits, law,
journalism, academia,
business, or anything else, they will continue to
be proponents of liberty.
One of my favorite catchphrases for SFL is
“Leaders of Liberty Start Here” because it’s
more than a slogan; it’s a description of what
SFL is actually doing. If you are already
involved with or supporting SFL, I want to
thank you for helping the incredible young
people detailed in this report become leaders.
(And if you’re not yet, I encourage you to do
so!) This generation has the chance to make
the world a freer place, and SFL’s students and
alumni are taking the lead in doing just that.
Sincerely & For Liberty,
Alexander McCobin
