This topic offers an opportunity to engage in important and current conversations in the university about the changing landscape of higher education and the purpose of the university in society. This conversation will explore how universities today are grappling with these tensions (played out in arenas such as: the decline of the humanities, the increasing reliance on adjunct faculty, the trending away from liberal education to job preparation, etc.), and what it might mean for Christian graduate students and faculty to engage as salt and light in these conversations about the direction of the university.
