experience is sacred space. The Truitt Center for Religious
and Spiritual Life not only offers spaces useful as places of
spiritual growth and formation, but spaces that are useful
for productive group meetings and work. You may reserve
these spaces either through the R25 Scheduling System or by

includes offices for the Assistant Chaplain and Director of
Religious Life as well as the Jewish Chaplain, InterVarsity
Minister and Catholic Campus Minister.
