Faith-Based University as Transformative Places
November 23rd, 2014
Higher education in the United States includes a wide range of institutions offering undergraduate and graduate degrees. The large public institutions may be more visible, but the small independent colleges and universities play a significant and often under-appreciated role. Faith-based institutions are flat-out misunderstood by many. In an article published in the Mennonite Brethren Church’s denominational magazine, “The Christian Leader,” I wrote about the transformative nature of faith-based institutions. Although drawing on my experience at Fresno Pacific University and knowledge of the other Mennonite institutions, the same argument could also be made for many other faith-based institutions.
