Iain Stanford Named Giving Tuesday Scholar
Harvard Divinity alum, Oregon postulant pursues Anglican Studies Certificate
Iain Stanford is the new Giving Tuesday Scholar at Church Divinity School of the Pacific, Dean and President W. Mark Richardson announced on March 10.
Stanford, a postulant to the priesthood from the Diocese of Oregon, earned a master of divinity from the University of Notre Dame, a master of theology from Harvard Divinity School and has completed coursework for doctorate of theology at Harvard. At CDSP, Stanford is enrolled in the Certificate of Anglican Studies program and will work on his dissertation.
The new Giving Tuesday scholarship, one of several new scholarships that CDSP offers for 2015-2016, was made possible by CDSP donors who participated in Giving Tuesday, an initiative that encourages people to give online on the Tuesday after Thanksgiving. In 2014, CDSP's Giving Tuesday raised more than $10,000.

MacDougall to Teach Theology in 2015-2016
Grau accepts position in Norway
During the 2015-2016 academic year, Scott MacDougall will serve as visiting assistant professor of theology at CDSP. MacDougall, who holds an MA from General Theological Seminary and a PhD from Fordham University, will join the faculty for one year to replace Professor Marion Grau, who has accepted the positions of professor of systematic theology and missiology at the Norwegian School of Theology and editor of the Norwegian Journal of Missiology beginning in September 2015.
President Richardson announced the news to the CDSP community in a letter on March 18.
"...[F]or the last several years, Marion has been conducting research on pilgrimage sponsored by the Norwegian Research Foundation's Ritual and Democracy Project," he wrote. Her new position will make it possible both to return to Europe full-time and to extend this important new academic work and the relationships that have developed from it. While I will be sorry to say goodbye to Marion, who has been at CDSP for fourteen years, I hope you will all join me in congratulating her on this prestigious new position."
During the fall semester, MacDougall will teach a required theology course and an elective titled "Contemporary Theologies of Church."
