Religious Life Programs

A diverse group of student organizations is affiliated with the Office of Religious Life.  These organizations make it possible for students to observe and celebrate their faith with others of the same tradition at Denison.   The Chaplain, along with members of the Denison faculty and local clergy, serve in an advisory capacity for our student-led organizations.   Leadership positions and other opportunities, such as establishment of new organizations, are available.   Please contact us in Religious Life if you do not see your area of interest listed here!
