Welcome from the Chair
My name is Steven Sajkich and I now serve as the Chair for the Commission for Spirituality, Faith, Religion, and Meaning.
This year we are focusing our efforts to rebuild our commission. I truly believe that CSFRM is an instrumental entity within ACPA and I look forward to seeing our continued growth. If you are interested in serving on the directorate, volunteering, or just have comments or ideas to share, please contact me at ssajkich@gmail.com
Mission
The ACPA Commission for Spirituality, Faith, Religion, & Meaning (CSFRM) will provide ACPA members an arena within which to conduct research and assessment, strengthen their professional competencies, and enrich their self-knowledge and professional knowledge about issues related to meaning-making, specifically spirituality, faith, religion, belief, and existentialism within the context of higher education. In addition, acting within the ACPA governance structure and with the ACPA International Office, CSFRM will assist in positioning ACPA to be an informed voice on existential pursuits of meaning-making, including spirituality, faith, religion, and belief as they relate to student development, the administration of student affairs, and the organization of governance structures within a college, community college, or university setting. These efforts will include examining various modes of pursuing meaning-making in the contextual experience of both the U.S. and the global higher education community (Adopted by the CSFRM Directorate Body, October 2009).
