Trustees approve M.Min.

The last on-campus step for approval of Anderson's Master of Ministry degree was completed with today's overwhelming affirmation by the university's Board of Trustees.

Now the last stage of approval is with the Southern Association of Colleges & Schools (SACS), which will soon receive documents relating to the new program. Once the program receives affirmation from SACS, then we'll be official and can proceed with seeking and receiving applications for enrollment.

We're looking forward to that first class in August 2009!

Faculty approves M.Min.

This week the AU faculty voted to approve the Master of Ministry degree. Next week the degree program will be presented to the university's Board of Trustees. And after that, the last stage of approval will be with SACS, our regional accrediting agency.

At Catalyst this week in Atlanta, I had the chance to speak to a number of people about the new M.Min. degree, and there is growing interest in what we'll be doing in fall 2009. More to report soon!
