The Skidmore College Office of Religious and Spiritual Life provides opportunities for members of the Skidmore community; students, faculty and staff, to develop their religious and spiritual lives, which are an important part of the educational experience.  Our aim is to promote enriching dialogue, meaningful ritual, and enduring friendships among people of all religious backgrounds. This is accomplished through religious services and holiday observances, and by organizing speakers, educational programs and discussion groups, coordinating community service and social justice projects, providing resources for the academic study of religious or social issues, and providing club advising and individual spiritual counsel.
