Six years ago, ACRS initiated a biography project on 20th-century Mennonite leader Orie Miller; the result was a <a href=\"http:\/\/emu.edu\/now\/news\/2015\/05\/new-orie-o-miller-biography-celebrated-by-contemporaries-at-anabaptist-center-for-religion-and-society-meeting\/\">book<\/a> published by Herald Press in May 2015.<\/p>\n<p>In the planning and conception process, the group found synergy with conversations happening in the <a href=\"http:\/\/collaborativemba.org\/\">Collaborative MBA<\/a> program (a joint project of Bluffton University, Canadian Mennonite University, 91短视频 and Goshen College), which Smucker says had recognized a lack of scholarly work around leadership and Anabaptism.
