Emmaus Faculty
Emmaus faculty members teach courses embedded throughout the Hope College curriculum.
In addition to other program requirements, Emmaus faculty members:
- Engage with, learn from and teach important ideas using primary texts written by Christians and non-Christians
- Cultivate intellectual virtues — read and write charitably, think carefully, listen respectfully, demonstrate intellectual humility
- Abstain from activism in the classroom, teaching multiple sides of an issue and highlighting reasonable disagreements with their own position
- Respect students’ autonomy, allowing them to work out their positions while holding them to high standards
- Attend Emmaus colloquia and evening prayer
- Are Christians who affirm the creeds without reservation
