Hispanic Scholars Program

Please join us in celebrating HSP faculty member, Rev. Dr. Cláudio Carvalhaes, on being named an Auburn Seminary Barbara Wheeler Fellow! Dr. Carvalhaes' research for the fellowship is titled "Sacred Imagination for Desecrated Times: Arts as Curandería in Theological Education."

"The Barbara Wheeler Fellowship aims to support research projects that study and analyze trends in theological education, specifically within the 270+ theological schools accredited by the Association of Theological Schools (ATS). The fellowship provides financial support to scholars who are committed to advancing knowledge in the field through rigorous research methodologies." (Auburn Seminary.)

📚 Readings for Transformative Teaching 📚⁠
⁠
Our 2026 Pedagogy Workshop brought together all 6 Summer Session faculty at Austin Seminary! Through engaging discussions on pedagogy and hands-on work refining syllabi, faculty drew on their years of teaching while exchanging resources, strategies, and best practices. Building on this shared work, we’re sharing a reading list from the workshop over the next several weeks—offering a collection of readings recommended by Summer Session faculty and HSP staff that have shaped their own approaches to teaching in and beyond the classroom.⁠
