Roberta Bondi, Ph.D.
 Roberta
Bondi, professor of church history emerita, came to Candler School of
Theology in the late 1970s to be the first woman to assume a tenured
track position at the school. An advocate of women, Bondi says she
started out at Candler embarrassing her colleagues when, in faculty
meetings, she would raise issues of concern to women. She persevered,
however, and ultimately was met with success. Among other
accomplishments, Bondi became one of the founders of the Women in
Theology Program, a program that prepares female theology students for
their work in ministry.
