CHRISTIAN COALITION: THE EVOLVING UNITY OF THE FUNDAMENTALIST RIGHT Oran P. Smith, Universityof South Carolina The earliest studies into the voting behavior of religious people classified religious voters very simply: Protestant, Catholic, Jew. This simplistic understanding has given way in the last 35 years to much more intense scrutiny of the differences within Protestantism, Catholicism, and even Jewry at the ballot box. The most recent analysis has broken down Protestantism further, sifting out the differences between Main Line Protestants, Evangelical Protestants, and Fundamental ists in political behavior. This article will attempt to take this progression in the literature one step further. Instead of subdividing Protestantism into parts and analyzing the distinctions, we will attempt to blend what we have learned from the voting behavior literature with theories of interest groups and social movements to subdivide a part of Protestantism, the Fundamentalis t Right.

Grand Rapids: Baker Academic, 2006. 316 pp. $28.00 (paper), ISBN 978-0-8010-3145-8. Reviewed by Michael Tworek (Harvard University) Published on H-Education (February, 2011) Commissioned by Jonathan Anuik Religion Matters: Protestant Christianity’s Influences on the American College Whether twenty-seven years ago or in its second edition, William C. Ringenberg’s book, The Christian College: A History of Protestant Higher Education in America (2006), stresses the same message: one must recognize the importance of religion, namely Christianity, in its various Protestant and Evangelical forms, to the development and shape of U.S. higher education, both in the past and present. The same praise and criticisms of the first edition largely apply to the second.[1] Aside from the new preface and epilogue, introduction, one new chapter, and immensely useful appendices, the main body of text is largely unchanged. Roman Catholic colleges are not included in the study since, as Ringenberg notes, they never styled themselves as “Christian” but rather as “Catholic.” While he states that he has attempted to maintain an air of impartiality, Ringenberg admits in the preface that his sympathies lie with “those institutions which promote an open search for truth (i.e.

GOD’S GLASS CEILING: WOMEN’S EDUCATION IN CHRISTIAN FUNDAMENTALIST HIGHER EDUCATION INSTITUTIONS A Thesis presented in partial fulfillment of requirements for the degree of Master of Arts by MELISSA GRAVES August 2011 Copyright © 2011 by Melissa Graves ALL RIGHTS RESERVED ABSTRACT Fundamentalists have historically held complex relationships with education and with women. This thesis examines the intersection of the three topics through a case study approach by looking at the education of women at fundamentalist institutions Bob Jones University, Liberty University, and Southwestern Baptist Theological Seminary. Historically, fundamentalists have expressed great suspicion towards education and intellectualism. Fundamentalists insisted on a literal interpretation of the Bible. Moreover, they created fundamentalist universities and colleges so that parents could send their sons and daughters away to school without worrying that their children would abandon their faith. This thesis argues that fundamentalist schools approach the education of women in ways that are rife with paradox.
