Truitt Center Multifaith Internship

The Multifaith Internship from the Truitt Center for Religious and Spiritual is an experiential deep dive into the diverse religious, spiritual, and ethical traditions on Elon’s campus and beyond.

The internship is a cohort experience through which participants create meaningful holiday experiences for different religious celebrations and holidays, engage in meaningful one-on-one conversations across campus, and are deeply involved with with all aspects of Elon’s multifaith experience.

Along with representatives of these religious communities, interns will create space, build and cultivate relationships, lead programs, and facilitate learning opportunities about religious and spiritual identities and experiences on campus and beyond. All this will be to explore, firsthand, how cooperation and collaboration foster learning, appreciation and greater understanding, and how this enhances Elon’s Multifaith campus community.

In the words of Clara Wakins, ’25: “as a Multifaith Intern, I can explore my own faith, and I can also experience different religious traditions and learn more about all the different communities on campus. In this space, all my values and beliefs are tied together, encouraged, and supported”.
