The Center for Spirituality offers programs that promote the engagement between faith and reason and the connection between mind, body, and spirit. Spirituality at the Center is discussed as an academic discipline and as a way of life and includes individual and social dimensions of spirituality. We draw on intellectual resources in the Catholic and Christian heritage as well as how individuals practice faith in their daily lives to develop critical conversations around contemporary religious issues, especially as they relate to womens experience.

Opportunities for students include: annual fall and spring lecture series on designated themes such as faith in public life or sustainability; the Madeleva Lecture given annually by a prestigious female scholar of religion; and the Real Life Project in vocation, inviting women in small groups to discuss the ways in which faith intersects with their future careers.
