Church Divinity School of the Pacific has named Jennifer Snow, associate for discipleship ministries in the Episcopal Diocese of California, to a dual position as director of extended learning and assistant professor of practical theology.
"Jennifer Snow is well positioned in background and sensibilities to take on the leadership of our extended learning program," said the Very Rev. Mark Richardson, CDSP's president and dean. "She brings a probing, analytic intellect and collaborative spirit to her work. I am delighted that she will be guiding the planning and implementation of our extended learning initiatives."
Snow, who holds a Ph. D. in religion from Columbia University, is the author of "Protestant Missionaries, Asian Immigrants, and Ideologies of Race in America." She has also written several articles on religion, immigration, and faith-based activism.
Snow, who was previously deputy director of Progressive Christians Uniting in Los Angeles, said she is excited by the opportunity both to develop CDSP's distance learning offerings and online pedagogy, and to teach in a seminary classroom.
"Being extended learning director will be really interesting because I love the challenge of both identifying people's needs and then finding the people who can fill them," Snow said. "I can continually meet people and say 'Oh that sounds interesting. I bet we can make a great course out of that.'
"For the practical theology part, I love teaching and being able to teach in a faith-based institution is very exciting to me," she added. "I am looking forward to teaching people who are deeply committed to their own faith journeys, and to creating an environment in which people's discernment is respected and is part of the classroom context."
