Student Body
Led by seminary President Michael L. Sweeney, the student body is composed of approximately 150 students, mostly pursuing masters degrees and mostly coming from the Christian Churches and Churches of Christ, the Christian Church (Disciples of Christ), and the Churches of Christ, though an increasing number of students from the Episcopal Church, Presbyterian Church (U.S.A.), Baptist Churches, and the United Methodist Church have studied there in recent years.

Famous quotes containing the words student and/or body:
“Solitude is not measured by the miles of space that intervene between a man and his fellows. The really diligent student in one of the crowded hives of Cambridge College is as solitary as a dervis in the desert.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
“A man must be clothed with society, or we shall feel a certain bareness and poverty, as of a displaced and unfurnished member. He is to be dressed in arts and institutions, as well as in body garments. Now and then a man exquisitely made can live alone, and must; but coop up most men and you undo them.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
