Abstract

This three-part article offers three observations on racial/ethnic student diversity in theological education. The first essay, by Barbara Leung Lai of Tyndale Seminary, provides a personal reflection by a racial/ethnic member of the faculty on diversity as an educational tool in which practice reinforces theory. The second essay, by Ruth Vuong of Fuller Theological Seminary, reports the voices of students, their experiences of ethnic diversity in their theological studies, and some of their hopes and concems. The final essay, by Francis A. Lonsway of the ATS staff, presents data drawn from two statistical resources of the Association: the Fact Book on Theological Education and the Student Information Project.
