All of our religious groups participate in interfaith engagement - whether through co-sponsored programs, travel, service, or our Big Days initiative.
Members of the Interfaith study group tour traveling in Istanbul take in the sights at the Grand Bazaar.
Morning Reflection
Honoring the spirit of past Colgate traditions, this gathering offers a sacred pause and brief encounters with the diverse religious, spiritual, and secular practices represented in our collective community. On select Wednesdays during the semester, participants experience 15 minutes of music, a reading or prayer, and a brief reflection, creating space for reflection, connection, and shared presence.
Heretics Club
Colgate’s “Heretics Club” lunch discussion series was created to elevate the conversation on campus about life’s “big questions.” Through lectures and conversations with a very diverse group of faculty, staff, and students, we demonstrate that people of different religious convictions and worldviews can have meaningful and productive conversations about ultimate ideas.
Interfaith House
Founded in 2013, the Interfaith House is home to students from a multitude of religious backgrounds who live and work together to provide the Colgate community with educational, philanthropic, and social programming.
Travel
From Istanbul to Italy, the Office of the Chaplains offers students opportunities to explore, experience and reflect on the world together.
