The Dean focuses on making space for religious-specific programming, facilitating interfaith dialogue & work, coordinating educational opportunities to delve into ethical, religious, philosophical, & spiritual subjects, engaging in conflict transformation, and much more!
"Does the Dean only represent only one religious community?"
The Dean works with a wide variety of spiritual communities to best provide for the needs of our diverse campus. Accordingly, the Dean is also active in representing Rutgers in conversations with our greater community in New Brunswick and surrounding areas.
