ARIHE

Association of Reformed Institutions of Higher Education

The Association of Reformed Institutions of Higher Education (ARIHE) is at present an association of ten institutions in the Reformed and Presbyterian Christian tradition. These institutions seek to develop and refine the identity, worldview and educational practices grounded in that tradition. The Presidents and other administrators of the member institutions are comitted to collaborate on projects that can nurture the collective Reformed Christian identity of these institutions and be of mutual benefit.

ARIHE.org also provides resources for those exploring off-campus study opportunities and those seeking jobs at Reformed institutions. The Off-Campus Programs Page provides a listing of all the sponsored and endorsed programs at ARIHE member institutions, along with links to the relevant webpages. The Job Postings Page offers a listing of job openings at the ARIHE institutions. Please view the Job Postings page for detailed descriptions of job openings as well as contact information to apply for those jobs. Our goal is to provide a one-stop online resource where those exploring off-campus studies and those seeking jobs at Reformed institutions can easily browse these across all of the ARIHE institutions.

  • LECTURER for 2012-31: Dr Deborah Bowen, Professor of English at Redeemer University College, has been selected as the ARIHE Lecturer for 2012-13. We congratulate Dr Bowen and pray that she may be a blessing as she visits various member campuses. Information about Dr Bowen and the topics of her lectures are found on the Lectures page of this website so that campuses can make their plans to invite her to speak during the 2012-13 academic year.
  • NEXT MEETING AND SYMPOSIUM: Given the presidential inaugurals at member institutions this fall (Covenant, Oct 5; Calvin, Oct 17; and Dordt, Oct 19), there will be no Symposium in the fall of 2012; instead a shortened annual meeting and time of fellowship will be planned at either Calvin or Dordt, depending on logistics and anticipated attendance. Members will be surveyed in June in order to determine the time and place of the meeting. The next Symposium will take place in the fall of 2013 at The King's University College, focussing on the topic of core curriculum (which would have been the topic at Dordt in 2012). Our thanks to our colleagues at King's for taking this on.
