弗雷斯诺太平洋大学受到门诺派弟兄教会的太平洋地区会议。该大学深深地有意地植根于洗礼主义基督教传统。The University has developed a Statement of Faith consistent with the denomination (also referred to as a Confession of Faith) and the Fresno Pacific Idea documents which reflect the University’s interpretation of what it means to be a community of learners committed to a distinctive vision of Christian higher education. The theological position of the University is represented in its Statement of Faith, as expressed in the Confession of Faith of the U.S. Conference of Mennonite Brethren Churches. As a Christian university, FPU administers this policy in alignment with the University’s Statement of Faith, the FPU Idea and applicable exemptions for religious institutions afforded by state and federal law. Nothing in this policy is intended to limit or otherwise conflict with the University’s exercise of rights as a religious institution and/or under applicable religious exemptions.
