Religious life at Brown is wide-ranging and accommodating for students of all faiths.
The multifaith chaplaincy on campus works diligently to ensure that all beliefs can find a home on campus. Manning Chapel, Hillel House, and the Brown Muslim Student Center represent some of the more established centers for religious services at Brown. In addition, there are frequent meetings of fellowship and spirituality groups throughout the campus.
To promote communication and understanding among all religious groups, the Office of the Chaplains and Religious Life sponsors a number of interfaith initiatives:
The Interfaith Supper is a weekly gathering held in the home of the university chaplain. For more than 30 years Thursday Supper has been a place for delicious food, inspiring speakers, and invigorating conversation.
The Multi-Faith Council is comprised of student leaders from all of the religious and faith communities on campus. The Council meets regularly to explore ways to deepen one another's understanding of different traditions as well as creating educational opportunities for the wider university community.
The Interfaith Program House is an interfaith residential space established by students during the 2003-2004 academic year. Its goal is to create a safe space at Brown to foster discussion, understanding, inter-religious dialogue, and respect for people of faith and those without a religious background.
Some of the faith communities at Brown include the following:
Christianity
Judaism
Islam
Hinduism
Buddhism
Baha'i
Unitarian Universalist
