Members of the Seminary community have been deeply involved in movements for environmental responsibility, racial equality, fair housing and social justice. Others have contributed to national and international discussions on such matters as peace and the welfare of children. These concerns, along with issues of cross-cultural diversity and ecumenical leadership are regularly addressed in course work and special projects.
