JEREMY REHWALDT-ALEXANDER, MIDLAND LUTHERAN COLLEGE

  Jeremy Rehwaldt-Alexander is an assistant professor of religion at Midland Lutheran College, with a teaching emphasis on ethics, and he serves as MLC’s coordinator for service learning. Jeremy has integrated service learning into several of his courses, particularly an introductory ethics course, “Power, Social Structures, and Moral Responsibility.” The student-organized community projects have resulted in a number of lectures and events, the formation of a student organization focused on environmental issues, the implementation of a campuswide recycling program, and a sleepout to raise awareness about issues of homelessness. Jeremy earned a Ph.D. from Vanderbilt University, M.T.S. from Harvard Divinity School, and B.A. from Macalester College. His research interests focus on the intersection of religion and social problems, particularly Christian responses to issues of race, class, and gender. In addition, he has worked in organizations addressing homelessness, police misconduct, sexual assault, domestic violence, youth violence, and racism.
