The Chaplain’s Office
The formation of character is a key part of the College’s mission, and many students lean on their faith to grow in this area. We have no mandatory statement of faith on campus, but students have created many opportunities for fellowship, discipleship, and spiritual development, as you can see in the list below. Additionally, our chaplain is available to provide spiritual counsel, direction, and instruction to individuals or groups during the week.
