Erskine provides an outstanding Christian liberal arts education
to all students to prepare them for responsible living, service,
and ministry in both church and society. Christian commitment
blends with academic excellence in a way which is neither
artificial nor contrived. The college has a strong belief in
academic freedom, provides incentive for critical thinking
and investigation, and attempts to model a true picture of
servant leadership.
As part of the Associate Reformed Presbyterian tradition
since 1839, Erskine attempts to unite faith and reason to produce
an atmosphere in which Christianity undergirds the freedom
of inquiry and inspires dedication to the search for truth
and understanding.
