Different religious leaders training in one school  

StaffAugust 24, 2010 

This upcoming fall, Claremont School of Theology will be being the "University Project," which will integrate the education of ministers, rabbis and Muslim religious leaders.

Time magazine recently published an article describing this initiative.

Here is an excerpt from that piece:

The project hatched naturally from Claremont's desire to engage southern California's religiously diverse population. "We're trying to catch up with the practical reality of how congregations, synagogues, and mosques are already trying to create some rapport among themselves," says Jerry Campbell, president of California's renowned Claremont School of Theology. Not only will the project offer comprehensive multi-faith classes, but also it hopes to establish the first accredited imam-training institution in the U.S.
