Education

Commitments

As United enters its second half-century, it is my responsibility and privilege to support our excellent faculty and academic staff individually and collectively to ensure that our ever-evolving programs:

• meet the needs of the changing church;
• are accessible to students both locally and at a distance;
• provide leaders with knowledge and skills for a variety of transformative ministries;
• uphold rigorous academic and professional standards;
• embody our charter to be ecumenical; and
• offer vital lifelong learning opportunities for both clergy and laity.

What I want to impart, instill, show, and/or give to students

United’s long-standing commitment to educate faithful leaders committed to furthering God’s just and righteous realm in church and world does not waver, though the expressions of that commitment change as we seek to respond to the call of the Still-Speaking God.
