Dr. Everett Piper has served as the president of Oklahoma Wesleyan University in Bartlesville, Oklahoma since August of 2002. His credentials include a B.A. from Spring Arbor University, a M.A. from Bowling Green State University, and a Ph.D. from Michigan State University. Dr. Piper speaks boldly and unapologetically on issues such as natural law, unalienable rights, self-evident truths, and the unavoidable consequences of ideas on personal, political, community, and corporate well-being. His commentary rhetorically confronts the reader and listener to consider issues such as freedom, justice, common sense, human dignity, sexual responsibility, and moral objectivity. Piper is specifically passionate in arguing that postmodern political correctness is really nothing more than an unvarnished ploy to consolidate power among society’s elites and to, thus, restrict the individual freedoms and rights of the general public. Opinion as the final measure of right and wrong always leads to the rise of the “rule of the gang” or “the tyranny of one.” Dr. Piper writes for numerous publications including the Examiner Enterprise, Chuck Colson’s Breakpoint Magazine, and Crosswalk.com. He resides with his wife and two children in Bartlesville, Oklahoma.
