Knox Conservatives

The Knox Conservatives is a student organization created to promote conservative ideals on the Knox College campus as well as within the Galesburg community. Through an annual speaker series and other events throughout the academic year, we are able to promote principles of conservatism.

By joining the Knox Conservatives, you can engage in the political discourse at Knox and offer your own perspective.

The Knox Conservatives organization strives to offer a diversity of political options and discussions for students on the Knox campus and in the community.
