What does it mean to be a Mennonite university? This book answers that question in a descriptive, rather than a prescriptive way, drawing on the thought and experience of the faculty, staff, and alumni of Canadian Mennonite University, as well as the leaders of the churches that formed it and a neighbouring provincial university. While the book comes out of the life of CMU, it is meant to be a resource for anyone interested in questions of religion and university, from the broadest to the most particular of concerns. This book is written in honour of Gerald Gerbrandt, who was President of CMU from 2003-2012, and who for years previous to that took part in leading the formation of the university.
