In recent years the Classical Learning Test has provided for the classical renewal movement what, for everything else we have going for us, has been lacking: a standardized test. CLT provides “assessments steeped in content that is intellectually richer and more rigorous than other standardized tests and college entrance exams,” geared primarily around a substantial author bank “of men and women who have made invaluable contributions to culture and history.”



In this episode, Winston Brady interviews CLT-president and founder Jeremy Tate about the early years getting CLT off the ground, his perspective of the educational landscape, and his thoughts for the future of education. Jeremy Tate is a former college admissions test prep consultant and counselor. Alarmed by the lack of logic- and philosophy-based subject matter in the two dominant forms of entrance exams, he founded Classic Learning Initiatives (CLI) as a means of restoring the foundation of Western education.
