Religious Life

At Huston-Tillotson University, we are dedicated to shaping an inclusive and interconnected academic environment where students of all religious faiths and backgrounds can thrive. We encourage a culture of openness and respect, making meaningful changes to empower students to explore, practice, and share their faith freely. Religious Life offers students inspiring opportunities to engage in interfaith civic activities, deepen their understanding of religious diversity, find unity and comfort in times of need, and nurture their individual beliefs and practices in a supportive community.
