NYU’S Center for Spiritual Life

NYU’s Center for Spiritual Life is a multi-faith initiative to enhance the educational experience by fostering a community of scholars who support religious expression, leadership, integrity, mutual respect, and open dialogue. It seeks to provide a safe environment for all students to grow, explore and deepen their own beliefs and values.

Additionally, the Center offers a sanctuary for learning and exploration, and for deepening one’s understanding of self, of others, and of the world, while fostering the education of the whole person.

The Center encourages students to expand their knowledge within and beyond their own faith traditions. By doing so, students have the opportunity to embrace choices and create meaningful connections within NYU, in their home communities, and in the global community.

The Center for Spiritual Life and the Chaplains’ Circle Seek to Promote:

• spiritual wholeness
• respect within & beyond one’s faith community
• engagement with religious diversity
• dialogue
• community service
• ethical reasoning
• personal responsibility and value development
