Emerging Scholars Network Launches

After a careful planning process of nearly two years, on March 1, 2004, ��ñ�� launched the Emerging Scholars Network (ESN) — an endeavor of interest to all Christian scholars from undergraduates to senior faculty. Building upon the insight and guidance of a diverse advisory council of university and college faculty and ��ñ�� staff, the ESN Director, and a work group of faculty and staff eagerly open the doors on this thirty-year vision. In the words of the ESN Mission Statement:

“The Emerging Scholars Network is called to identify, encourage, and support the next generation of Christian scholars, at all stages of their academic careers, who will be a redeeming influence within higher education.”

Included in the launch events are:

the opening of free, online registration for new members
an opening slate of online resources at EmergingScholars.org for members and non-members alike
brochures and brainstorming flyers that will be distributed to all ��ñ�� staff, among others
presentations about ESN to ministry leaders inside and outside of ��ñ��
an upcoming panel presentation at the conference, “Christianity and the Soul of the University”

Stan Wallace, Director of ��ñ��’s Faculty Ministry and of the Emerging Scholars Network, welcomes scholars at every career stage to join, and hopes that the Network will be a rich opportunity for collaboration among campus ministers as well, within all of ��ñ�� and beyond.
