This Web site is our virtual front door. If you came
through our actual front door in Berkeley, Calif., you
would be greeted by the sights and sounds of a small,
lively school where people are deeply engaged in theological
study. You might hear spirited conversation punctuated
by loud laughter, see people sitting in quiet contemplation
in the Meditation Room, or smell soup simmering in the
kitchen in preparation for an evening gathering. (See
Experiencing
Community.)
We hope by browsing this Web site you will get a sense
of our educational commitments.
We value scholarly study united with practical, experiential
learning and offer personalized attention in the learning
process. We respect the beauty of cultural diversity,
honor interfaith and ecumenical engagement, and seek
to counter oppressions.
Rooted in Unitarian Universalism's liberal religious
heritage, we believe in the importance of congregational
life as well as individual spiritual practice and are
devoted to creating a more hopeful future that reverences
life, embodies justice and sustains peace.
Enjoy your virtual visit with us. We welcome your interest
in studying at Starr King School, supporting
our work financially and drawing on the resources
we make available through this site.
Come see us in person if you would like to explore
further. Contact
