Religious and Spiritual Life

Bryn Mawr believes that faith and spirituality are a significant aspect of many students’ lives and that the free exercise of religion, as well as conversations among people with different world views, is integral to the educational mission of the College and to the quality of student life on campus. We strive to create and support spaces and programs on campus that facilitate religious and spiritual community-building, exploration, and inquiry. Our intent is to celebrate and empower Bryn Mawr’s diverse religious and spiritual community and to welcome interfaith dialogue.
