An understanding of the relationships between the fields of knowledge 3. An understanding of value systems in order to develop the mind and character for free and mature decision making 4. Methods of inquiry unique to the various disciplines of knowledge 5. An understanding of the creative arts in a wide range of human experience and knowledge 6. Independent scholarship 7. Competency in reading, writing, speaking, and the functional use of numbers 8. An understanding of how to care for the human body, use the environment, and use leisure time in order to maintain and improve physical and mental well-being Tabor is...A Community of Learners Aided by divine grace, love, and power, a community of learners may achieve high moral standards and experience the deepest meaning and potential of human nature.

  • CCCU Faculty Salary Survey 2016-17
    CCCU Faculty Salary Survey: 2016-17 Update by Nita Stemmler, Council for Christian Colleges & Universities Introduction. This is the thirty-third in an annual series of research reports conducted by the Council for Christian Colleges & Universities (CCCU). The purpose of this study is to provide CCCU Governing Member institutions with comparative and longitudinal salary data. The research has traditionally been based on information compiled for the AAUP, appearing in Academe each spring (for the current study, from March/April, 2017). Fifty-seven CCCU institutions of 111 US- based schools are not represented in the AAUP survey this year. For these members, the author used data surveyed by the CCCU. Nine schools are not represented in this study due to a lack of available data. Due to changes in CCCU membership categories, only governing members are included in this survey, however, we have added a new appendix based on Carnegie Classifications that allow us to include collaborative partners and affiliate members. Readers should keep in mind these data sources when considering any analysis. Schools in the group which did not report data to Academe but which did respond to the CCCU survey used the definitions from the AAUP survey to help attain similarity and comparability. Academe requests salary information based on a 9-month contract, and this has meant that some universities have had to recalculate salaries if significant numbers of faculty work a ten-month or eleven-month academic year. General Findings. Table I (below) summarizes the central tendencies for salaries, by rank, for the past ten years of the study period.
