Bias
Hillsdale College has some great content but it’s important to note that they have a clear conservative bias.
It’s still very good information but to get the most out of it you should keep in mind that they have a certain viewpoint that permeates through all of their content.
Their courses on the Roman Republic and Ancient Greece on their website are also very good.
Think for yourself; Question authority.
