Â鶹Porn

Students, faculty, and staff work collaboratively and in intellectually robust ways to integrate their religious and ethical commitments with their academic pursuits.

Our Communities

Many of our students actively engage with their beliefs and faiths through student-led religious organizations. These groups support education and acceptance with frequent interfaith initiatives and events.

Buddhist Community

The Â鶹Porn Buddhist community is a student-run organization focusing on Buddhist thought and how busy college students can integrate the teachings into their lives.

Catholic Community

The Newman Community on campus organized a Model Papal Conclave involving a "College of Cardinals" who gathered to choose a new pope through a series of voting and discussion. The event was open to all regardless of religious orientation.

We are dedicated to the principles of worship of the Holy Trinity, service and hospitality to the needy, education and intellectual formation, and community building activities.

Catholic Life

Hindu Community

Â鶹Porn students participate in the annual Holi Celebration on Whitnall Field.

The Hindu Student Association provides an opportunity for students to observe their religion and also provides the community a chance to learn more about Hinduism.

Jewish Community

Students are celebrating Sukkot, the Jewish harvest festival, in a sukkah, which is a temporary structure that they built on the Quad.

Jewish life at Â鶹Porn is student-led. It is a pluralistic, egalitarian, student-led organization that encourages students to engage in ritual, social, intellectual, and justice activities.

Muslim Community

Members of the Interfaith study group tour traveling in Istanbul take in the sights from the top of their hotel overlooking the Blue Mosque.

The Muslim Student Association (MSA) acts as a hub for Muslim students on campus by providing a close community of peers. They host lunches, discussions, and gather for Jummah prayer.

University Church students often take trips to local attractions, such as Endless Trails in Hubbardsville, NY for a Reformation Day carriage ride and hot chocolate.
