Philosophy & Religious Studies
We don't shy away from life's big questions.
College is a time when you begin to question the world around you. Why are we here? What is the meaning of life? How are ethics determined?
In the Division of Philosophy and Religious Studies, we aren’t afraid to ask those questions and search for answers. We pride ourselves on creating classroom spaces that are open and respectful, encouraging deep thought and frank discussions.
So let’s question and explore life, together.
