Professors in the Department of Religion are committed not only to their scholarship, but also to their students. They are accessible in their offices and on the web; they invite you to contact them. With academic interests ranging from ancient Christianity to large-scale Buddhist monasteries in Tibetan history, they lead students through an interdisciplinary examination of world religions.
