History and current programs
ESR was founded in 1960 by Wilmer Cooper, D. Elton Trueblood and others for the training of Quaker ministers. Three certificates are also available: writing as ministry, Quakerism, and spirituality. Today Earlham School of Religion grants the Master of Divinity, the Master of Ministry, and Master of Arts in Religious Studies degrees with four areas of concentration: Biblical Studies, Christian Theology, Quaker Studies, and Peace and Justice Studies. Earlham School of Religion is accredited by the Association of Theological Schools in the United States and Canada.
In addition to its regular on-campus program, ESR also operates an ATS accredited, degree granting distance education program called ESR ACCESS.
The institution hosts a number of annual conferences and events including the "Spirituality Day," "Pastor's Conference," and a "Ministry of Writing Colloquium."
In 1994, Bethany Theological Seminary, affiliated with the Church of the Brethren, relocated to Richmond, Indiana, from Oak Brook, Illinois, and entered into a partnership with Earlham School of Religion. The schools remain independent but coordinate curriculum through a jointly operated Academic Services office, and they operate a combined computer network through Seminary Computing Services.
