Religious Education Association
The Religious Education Association is the world’s oldest and largest association of scholars and researchers in the field of religious education. It is a nonprofit member association, serving as a professional and learned society for scholars and researchers involved in the field of religious education. It has several hundred members, most of whom are from North America, with a scattering of members worldwide. REA members are university and college professors, independent scholars, secondary teachers, clergy, church educators, curriculum developers, judicatory executives, seminarians, graduate students, and interested lay-people. REA members come from multiple faith traditions, and no tradition, and study a very diverse array of religious traditions.
==History==
The REA was founded in 1903 by William Rainey Harper, the first president of the University of Chicago, with the support of the Council of Seventy, a learned society of biblical scholars.〔"Form new organization for religious education," ''Chicago Daily Tribune'', June 20, 1903, p. 6〕 The keynote speaker at its first convention was John Dewey. In its early years the Association was organized into several groups: Council of religious education, Universities and colleges, Theological seminaries, Churches and pastors, Sunday schools, Secondary public schools, Elementary public schools, Private schools, Teacher-training, Christian associations, Young people’s societies, the Home, Libraries, the Press, Correspondence instructions, Summer assemblies, Religious art and Music.〔"The Religious Education Association," in ''The Biblical World'', Vol. 25, No. 1, p. 70-72, Jan. 1905〕 In 1906 the Association began to publish the journal ''Religious Education'' under the editorship of Henry Cope. In 1953 the Association marked its 50th anniversary with a three day meeting at the University of Pittsburgh that brought together more than 2500 Christian and Jewish educators from the US and Canada.〔"Church educators to mark 50th year," New York Times, 31 October 1953, p. 9〕 In 1973 the Association began awarding the William Harper Rainey award to distinguished educators.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.religiouseducation.net/harper )〕 In 1975, the Association held a major national colloquy on civil religion at which scholars Robert Bellah, Vine DeLoria, Jr., and Michael Novak spoke.〔"Educators weigh a 'civil religion,'" New York Times, 27 November 1975, p. 38〕 In 1992 the Association began awarding the Herman E. Wornom award to distinguished institutions.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.religiouseducation.net/wornom )〕 In 2003 the REA merged with the Association of Professors and Researchers in Religious Education〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.religiouseducation.net/wp-content/uploads/2011/02/REA_APRRE_052003.pdf )〕 (which was formed in 1970 from an earlier section of the National Council of Churches). Yale University holds the archives of the Religious Education Association and its predecessor bodies.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://drs.library.yale.edu/HLTransformer/HLTransServlet?stylename=yul.ead2002.xhtml.xsl&pid=divinity:074&clear-stylesheet-cache=yes )〕〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://drs.library.yale.edu/HLTransformer/HLTransServlet?stylename=yul.ead2002.xhtml.xsl&pid=divinity:154&clear-stylesheet-cache=yes )〕
