Well, the University President, Robert Sloan, says this decision will be
left up to the new advisory committee.

Although Sloan insisted that the committee's recommendations will be carried
out completely and as soon as possible, the question of administrative
structure within the center still remains unresolved.
Whether the center will re-emerge under a new name or just be another
research project within the Institute of Faith and Learning is unclear.
"We are going to ask the advisory committee to consider that," Sloan said.
"If they think its appropriate that we still have a structure like the
center, then one of the things they can suggest is a new name."
[end quote]
So it seems that a lot will depend on the composition of the advisory
committee.
