Board of Trustees

In 1914, Texas Christian University and leaders of the Disciples of Christ in Texas established Brite as a separate corporation, with its own board of trustees, to provide education for the leadership of the churches.

The Board of Trustees has authority and responsibility for Brite Divinity School. The Board sets and reviews basic policies of the institution and through its corporate officers provides for leadership, management, and oversight of the School. Members are drawn from the Christian Church (Disciples of Christ) and several other denominations. Qualifications include active membership in a church or synagogue.
