Think through and articulate your faith
You’re invited to practice your faith in service and mission to the world.
Uncover spiritual life on campus in nearly every pocket and hour of campus life. You’ll find your own spirituality formed as much in the classroom or lunchroom as in chapel or campus ministries.
Grow in articulating your faith and gain a deeper understanding and respect for one another through theological discussions triggered by a convocation speaker, a chapel service or simply your own soul searching.
Explore a spiritual life by contributing to and reflecting our vibrant, diverse and stimulating community.
Focus not on what but rather how to believe – while building relationships and learning to work with people who are different from you, skills essential for success in college and beyond.
