Executive director | Faith in Place | Class of 2007

The Rev. Brian Sauder left Illinois with a bachelor’s in natural resources/environmental sciences, an MBA in general management and and a clear career path in front of him.

For the latter, he has a favorite educator in part to thank.

“Professor Robert McKim in the Department of Religion welcomed me as an undergrad and encouraged me in my pursuits to connect the dots between faith and ecology,” Sauder says from Chicago.

“It is his encouragement that launched my career today as the executive director of Faith in Place.”
