Our Mission
Who am I as a religious believer, or non-believer? How am I to understand the particularity of my own beliefs in a religiously plural world? Can truths be found in traditions other than my own? Am I willing to look at my own faith in a rigorous and critical way?
The Department of Religious Studies allows students to pursue the academic study of religion in a spirit of free intellectual inquiry. Religious studies majors seek answers to the above and other questions. Students soon discover what many theologians and philosophers have understood for centuries—the answers are often more questions.
