Campus Interfaith
Contact: Caitlin Czeh, Coordinator of Campus Interfaith
The statement developed by the faculty, “An Educated Man or Woman,” enunciates the
goals of the development of spiritual strength, ethical standards, and maintaining the
respect for the religious convictions of all people. We recognize this need and encourage
students to grow in spiritual and religious directions.
Houses of worship of many denominations surround campus and there are also oncampus
opportunities to worship. We support and encourage student participation in
the religious and spiritual tradition of their choosing.
The Campus Interfaith Director, located in the Student Center, can assist students in
finding the closest house of worship of their choosing, as well as providing opportunities
for students to gather for fellowship, study, and service.

all media but is particularly strong in 19th and 20th century American paintings. The
