Center for Biblical Integration The Center of Biblical Integration at Cedarville University promotes biblical integration throughout curriculum, teaching, and research for both the University and the evangelical community. The center strives to be a resource for integrative study, teaching, and service in drawing connections between a biblical and theological foundation, academic disciplines, and topics of life. The center also aids faculty members in their personal integration efforts in their classrooms, academic research, or professional field. Cocurricular Opportunities Several organizations exist campus wide, which assist in the development of character and ministry skills. Many Bible faculty serve as advisors for these organizations, and our students are encouraged to take full advantage of them. For example: Alpha Sigma Alpha Sigma is an organization devoted to promoting critical thinking through philosophical and theological inquiry into issues central to the Christian worldview and our contemporary culture. Theta Alpha Kappa The National Honor Society for Religious Studies and Theology, Theta Alpha Kappa (TAK), acknowledges the academic achievements of religion and theology students. TAK also offers scholarship awards, fellowship competitions, and publishes superior student papers in their periodical, the Journal of Theta Alpha Kappa.
