Faculty Commons (known until 2007 as Christian Leadership Ministries, CLM) is the faculty ministry of Cru. Its aim is to "disciple and mentor Christian professors" with a goal of 500 "Faculty Affiliates" (faculty members promoting Faculty Commons aims) and at least three Faculty Affiliates in each of the 100 largest universities in the United States of America, to enable these professors to "continually saturate campus with the gospel, and fully integrate their faith into their academic discipline and culture".
Through its Leadership University website, Faculty Commons maintains "Virtual Faculty Offices" for Christian professors affiliated with it, including a number of members of the intelligent design movement (for whom it also maintains archives of their writings), most prominently Phillip E. Johnson and William Dembski, and Roe v. Wade plaintiff turned pro-life advocate Norma McCorvey.

—John Kenneth Galbraith (b. 1908)
“Anybody who enjoys being in the House of Commons probably needs psychiatric care.”
