Add a new sub-point at the end of ¶ 1513.4:

k) To seek to ensure that United Methodist seminaries receiving support from the Ministerial Education Fund shall make good-faith efforts to anchor biblical, historical, theological, ethical, and ministry studies in teachings not incongruous with or dismissive of the Discipline's doctrinal standards, and that deans of these faculties shall be obliged not to knowingly condone or implicitly sanction teaching that inveighs directly against these standards or liturgical experimentation that demeans them.
