Is Andover Newton still going to be a Christian school?
Yes. The most critical insight of multi-faith theological education begins with the absolute necessity of emphasizing one’s own faith identity. We need every student to be strong in his or her own faith tradition and we must have a setting where that can be nurtured without exception or apology. That’s why, for instance, the new university model will permit each member school to have its own clearly articulated mission statement, so long as that statement does not conflict with the purposes of the larger entity.
