Theology and Academics
Fuller is accredited by the Association of Theological Schools in the United States and Canada and the Western Association of Schools and Colleges. Fuller's student body of more than 4,000 includes students from more than 70 countries and 100 denominational backgrounds.
Fuller admits evangelicals from both conservative and liberal perspectives. The seminary is also frequently at the center of debate among religious and secular intellectuals on issues ranging from politics, religion, science and culture.” Fuller instructors have been cited as proposing a different perspective on the conservative/liberal debate: "We need to be the voice of a third way that flows out of biblical values, instead of buying into the political ideology of either the right or the left."

Famous quotes containing the words theology and/or academics:
“A theology whose god is a metaphor is wasting its time.”
—Mason Cooley (b. 1927)
“Our first line of defense in raising children with values is modeling good behavior ourselves. This is critical. How will our kids learn tolerance for others if our hearts are filled with hate? Learn compassion if we are indifferent? Perceive academics as important if soccer practice is a higher priority than homework?”
—Fred G. Gosman (20th century)
