9. Governance and Administration: Theological schools are communities of faith and learning governed
by those with authority to ensure schools meet their missions with educational quality and financial
sustainability. Governing bodies do that by working collaboratively to establish priorities, develop
policies, make decisions, authorize actions, and evaluate outcomes. They are composed of qualified
persons who broadly represent their schools’ constituencies and understand their fiduciary
responsibilities. Governance is based on a bond of trust among boards, administrators, faculty, staff,
students, and ecclesial or denominational bodies where shared governance is clearly defined and
appropriately implemented. School administrations are adequately structured, sufficiently staffed, and
duly authorized and supported to fulfill their responsibilities.
