Multi-Faith Programs

Multi-Faith programming at 51³Ô¹ÏÍøprovides space in the university for people of various religious and ethical communities to join together across traditions. Far from ignoring particularity, we invite the 51³Ô¹ÏÍøcommunity to bring their full religious, spiritual, and ethical selves into this space and join together in creating community in the spaces between difference.

Interfaith Socials

Interfaith Socials serve as an opportunity for students, staff, and faculty to gather across religious traditions in fellowship and dialogue. We gather once a month to explore cultures, traditions, and faiths over a meal, sometimes in conjunction with ongoing holidays.
