The Institute for Faith and Freedom, formerly The Center for Vision and Values, is a conservative think tank established at Grove City College in April 2005 to provide their faculty members with the opportunity to share the fruits of their research and scholarship with the public. In 2010, the Center for Vision Values was given the Templeton Freedom Award for Excellence in Promoting Liberty, in the category of "Special Achievement by a University-based Center." Instituted in the fall of 2003, and named after the late philanthropist and pioneering investor—Sir John Marks Templeton—the Templeton Freedom Awards were the result of a partnership between the John Templeton Foundation and the Atlas Network, which administers the prize. Paul Kengor is a professor of political science at Grove City
