  1. Campus Ministry and Student Housing Healthy and financially Sustainable Campus Ministry for the 21st Century

  2. The New Model for Campus Ministry

  3. Local Church Or Parish-based Student Center Two Traditional Forms

  4. Other Factors To Consider… • The College Experience has Changed • Loss of Strong Community and Mentoring • Loss of Connection to Denominations • Decline of Campus Ministry Funding • Untapped Resources, Land, Relationship to University • Financial Stability

  5. Declining Funding Source: PCUSA Office of Campus Ministry, Robert E. Turner

  6. One Idea: Sell the Property The Center for University Ministry building, a fixture of religious education and service for Indiana University students for several decades, will be sold at auction this fall. . . VanderZee said the Presbyterian Synod of Lincoln Trails, which owns the building and 1.36-acre property, decided recently to sell it.Bloomington Herald Times Sept. 24, 2006

  7. Wesley Foundation, N.I.U. NIU looks at purchase of Wesley Foundation building by Joe King NIU’s Academic and Advising Center might soon have a new home if and when the university negotiates the purchase of a key piece of real estate. The NIU Board of Trustees last Thursday authorized university staff to enter into negotiations for the purchase of the former Wesley Foundation, located at 633 W. Locust Street, just north of the campus parking deck and south of the Founders Memorial Library. If the university acquires the property, it will be remodeled and become home to the Academic and Advising Center, which assists students who have yet to select a major, as well as those who are in the process of changing majors.

  10. Building Community

  11. Communal Living Is… • Living in an Intentional Community that shares Common Space, Goals, and Values, • Some Examples • Monastic Orders • College Dorms • Fraternities and Sororities • Model of Residence Life at Oxford and Harvard • Provides a Supporting Community and Strengthens ties and relationship

  12. Residential Student Center • Larger Student Base • Sheltered Environment • Repair and Renew Facilities • Revitalize Ministry • New Ministry Opportunities • Build Stronger ties • With Students • Alumni • Supporting Churches • Increase Revenue for Center

  13. Universities Are Supportive Universities are welcoming Campus Ministries to partner with them to build new student housing: "Students seek out places where they feel comfortable and safe. Places that allow them to be themselves and to be able to ask important questions. I think the Pres House housing project will provide a new unique place for students looking for such a place to live. It will give them a place to live while they are attending a large public university where they will be able to find a spiritual community. I think it is an important addition to the choices students have at UW-Madison." - Paul Evans, Director, Division of University Housing, UW-Madison
