While research is the primary goal of the ten-week summer projects, we expect there to be an experiential component. We hope to sustain a connection between the research and some concrete expression of the issue. For example, a project on religion and sexual abuse might include some volunteering at a shelter for victims of domestic violence. We believe that critical reflection on experience enhances the quality of learning.

Members of the department of Religion will be supervisors of the research.   For projects involving other disciplines, other faculty members also may be involved.
