Bethel Seminary
Bethel Seminary is governed by a board of trustees comprising no fewer than 25 and no more than 35 persons. Sixty percent are elected by the delegates to the annual meeting of the Baptist General Conference, two are representatives of the district executive ministers council of the Baptist General Conference, and additional members are appointed by the Board of Trustees subject to confirmation by the annual meeting delegates. The president of the Baptist General Conference is an ex-officio member with voting rights. The president of Bethel University is the chief executive officer of the board. Reporting directly to the president are four administrative officers responsible for major areas of campus activity: executive vice president and provost of the seminary, executive vice president and provost of the college, executive vice president for business affairs, and executive vice president for institutional advancement.
Bethel Seminary is associated with Bethel University, a leading resource for Christian higher education with students from around the world enrolled in the seminary as well as the university’s College of Arts & Sciences, College of Adult & Professional Studies, and Graduate School.
