We're not home!
We’re currently operating out of the Law School while the Wilton Center finishes undergoing renovations. During this time, we remain fully operational and ready to connect—the best way to find out program details and get in touch is to message our staff directly. We appreciate your patience as we work to enhance our space, and we look forward to welcoming you upon our return. Contact us!
Worship Opportunities
The Office of the Chaplaincy can help students stay connected with their faith tradition. Richmond is home to a number of campus ministries representing a variety of world religious traditions. We also coordinate on-campus worship opportunities — ranging from Catholic Mass and Shabbat services to Muslim prayer and Zen meditation — and help students find off-campus congregations and organizations.
