FYS 111 Social Justice and the Birth of the Interfaith Movement

Beginning with the World's Parliament of Religions in 1893, interfaith dialogue and cooperation has been an important part of our understanding of the role of religion/spirituality on a global state. Understanding religious and spiritual traditions around the world through engagement in interfaith and interreligious dialogue is becoming an increasingly vibrant and integral part of a liberal arts curriculum. This First Year Seminar will explore social justice issues through the lens of the interfaith movement.
