Our Faculty

“There are few places in our world where one can find such a supportive container for learning and growing. What a treat to be part of this extraordinary community!”

“I am honored to work at an institution that offers students the experience, knowledge, and skills they will need to lead in this sacred work.”

Dr. Nicole Kirk is the first Rev. Dr. J. Frank and Alice Schulman Chair of Unitarian Universalist History.

“I believe humanity is interconnected. This means, I have a responsibility to the world to agitate for justice; I also have a responsibility not to lose my love for the human soul and human dignity in the midst of that work.”

“Because of my vocation as a theological educator and service as a lay leader, I believe that Unitarian Universalist theological education has a unique role to play.”

“Imagination and a deep, engaged knowing of the balance that holds us in an all-inclusive ecology will sustain humanity as we and our communities become toward the end of relating rightly. We all have a duty to be intentional in who we become as individuals, as communities, as a society.”

Rev. Tandi Rogers is known for her creative reframing and sparky questions and love of collaboration.

“I am grateful and excited to be part of Meadville Lombard’s commitment to developing ministers and ministries that “take into the world our Unitarian Universalist vision of justice, equity, and compassion.” 

Ron Engel is Professor Emeritus at Meadville Lombard and Research Fellow, The Center for Humans and Nature, with offices in New York and Chicago.
