John W. Hammond Institute for Free Enterprise

The John W. Hammond Institute for Free Enterprise is a research center at Lindenwood University within the Robert W. Plaster School of Business & Entrepreneurship. The Institute is divided into three focus centers along with many other initiatives.
           
The Hammond Institute's mission is to foster free enterprise and civil and religious liberty through the examination of market-oriented approaches to economic and social issues. This mission is based on the view that a limited government, such as that laid out in the Constitutional foundation of the United States, is a necessary component of a just and prosperous society.

The mission is accomplished through activities such as intellectual commentary and discussion, scholarly research, and programs designed to promote the Institute's mission within the University and the greater community.
