Corban University Catalog – 2014-2016 1 CORBAN UNIVERSITY Dear Friend of Corban: Thank you for taking the time to review the Corban University catalog. Together with Corban’s outstanding faculty and dedicated staff, I heartily embrace the idea that Christians are to be salt and light in their culture. We are to make every difference possible for Jesus Christ. We are to do this not just by spreading the good news of the Gospel, but also by exerting a Christian influence in every sphere of life—including politics, the media, the arts and the academy. At Corban, we are committed to equipping a new generation to think critically and operate from our one central foundation, Jesus Christ. To provide a Christian higher education is to equip today’s students to approach, respond to and serve a world that’s in desperate need around us. It is not to shelter anyone from questions, but to swing wide the door to asking and wrestling with every question under the sun— approaching every subject from the great truth that Jesus Christ is Lord of all. I assumed the presidency of Corban University in the summer of 2013, at an exciting and challenging period in America’s history, the history of the Christian church and the history of this institution. I invite you to partner with us to provide Christ-centered biblical education to train the next generation of church, business, education and community leaders. To Christ be the glory. Dr. Sheldon C.

After relocating to California in 1946 it became known as Western Baptist Bible College where it operated until moving to Oregon in 1969. In 1955 the college received degree-granting status from the State of California Department of Education, and in 1959 received national accreditation as a Bible college by the American Association of Bible Colleges. In 1968 it was first regionally accredited and remains so today by the Northwest Commission on Colleges and Universities. Over the years, the University has been transformed from a Bible college to a university offering programs in biblical studies, the liberal arts and professional studies. With a heritage of Baptist theology, Corban serves the greater evangelical community. In order to address the demographic changes from a historically Baptist student body to one representing a wide range of evangelical groups, the name was changed to Corban College in 2005. The name, a biblical word meaning “a gift dedicated to God,” and motto “dedicating heart and mind to God” reflect the University’s mission. The name Corban University was adopted in 2010 to reflect the expanded educational offerings. The fall of 2010 also saw a merger between Corban University and Northwest Baptist Seminary in Tacoma, Washington. This merger marked the formation of the Corban School of Ministry and extends Corban’s presence in the Pacific Northwest. Today, there are 50 accredited majors and programs of study including traditional, adult degree and graduate studies programs on campus and online. OUR MISSION STATEMENT To educate Christians who will make a difference in the world for Jesus Christ (Matthew 28:19 – 20). We seek to do this by: Fostering a transformative learning culture where a sustainable biblical worldview takes shape. Building a Christian community that promotes worship, creative expression and activities that reflect God’s character. Cultivating a life of stewardship and service toward God, humanity and creation. OUR CORE VALUES Christ-honoring Bible-centered People-oriented Excellence-driven Future-directed OUR COMMITMENT TO GROWTH We believe Christ has called all of us to a life of growth, and that if we are to be the kind of people God wants us to be, we must be prepared to take the risks that growth demands. We must not be afraid to reach beyond where we are. Reaching out of our boundaries of self to other people is part of growth. Evangelism is central to this commitment; but reaching means, too, an availability, an accessibility of mind and heart to other people, a refusal to shelter within the walls of habit, inertia, prejudice and fear. Such a commitment, in some circumstances, may demand the risk even of life. And there is always a psychological risk in opening ourselves up to other people. Not least may be the risk of being misunderstood by our own friends. Further, we must recognize that in reaching,

  • Welcome Welcome to Warner Pacific University! the 2020-2021 Academic Year Will Be Undertaken During a Period of Unprecedented Times
    Welcome Welcome to Warner Pacific University! The 2020-2021 academic year will be undertaken during a period of unprecedented times. In spite of the uncertainty of this pandemic that will affect higher education institutions across the nation, Warner Pacific University will remain flexible, dutiful, watchful and continuous in our following the great grace upon our institution that has sustained it since its founding in 1937. As Warner Pacific University’s newly appointed 8th President, I am confident that we will continue to move forward into a very bright future while building upon the foundation of the past 12 years under the wonderful leadership of President Andrea Cook. My leadership team and I will continue to emphasize and value Warner Pacific University’s standing as a vibrant, progressive university located within the beautiful city of Portland, Oregon. Warner Pacific University is and will remain a Christ-centered urban liberal arts university dedicated to providing students from diverse backgrounds an education that prepares them to engage actively in a constantly changing world. Over recent years, we have come to better understand our mission statement and how it applies to the unique setting of our campus. We seek to educate students who welcome the learning that comes with living in an increasingly diverse and thriving urban environment. Still further, the institution will continue to be guided by its foundational principles and evolution within the past 12 years as a dynamic, progressive institution while maintaining values that embraces its tradition, yet remains open to embrace the particular trajectory we are called to fulfill. To this end, I wish to reiterate and underscore President Andrea Cook’s words from excerpted from the 2019-2020 Catalog: “Four core themes run through our mission statement and guide the holistic educational process at Warner Pacific University.

  • 1.) to What Extent Will Marylhurst Provide A
    1.) To what extent will Marylhurst provide a “teach-out” beyond summer 2018 for students who can’t easily advance their academic careers through other means? I’m thinking particularly of art therapy students. Marylhurst is providing courses this summer for students who are able to graduate under that timeline. We are not able financially to provide coursework at Marylhurst University beyond that. We are required to have a “teach-out plan” by our accrediting body, NWCCU (the Northwest Commission on Colleges and Universities), that includes a description of what we are doing to help students finish their programs. We have been working with NWCCU to ensure that we have a satisfactory teach-out plan. Marylhurst University’s “teach-out plan” has three components and has been verified as appropriate by NWCCU. 1. Summer Term: Marylhurst will remain open to help students make progress towards completion of, or to complete, their programs of study. Our analysis shows that between 80 and 125 students can complete their degrees during summer term. If at all possible, Marylhurst will scholarship students for these classes. 2. Teach-Out Agreements: These are “written agreements between institutions that are accredited or pre-accredited by a nationally recognized accrediting agency…” These agreements might include an agreement to accept a cohort of students or the transfer of an entire program provided that the accepting institution can meet their governing and accreditation bodies’ requirements. 3. Student Transfers: Students are able to transfer to complete their degrees at the institution of their choice. We are doing everything we can to help facilitate this and make the process easy for them to navigate.
