Profiles of Current Students
The students who come to the Divinity School are a remarkable group in many ways. They have chosen what to most of their contemporaries is a doubly strange route: to commit one's life to the ineffabilities of the life of the mind, and to choose to study religion. And yet they still come, year after year, for all kinds of motivations, to satisfy their thirst for knowledge, to bridge academic disciplines, and to find intellectual companions in that work.
"What are you working on these days?" remains perhaps the most common greeting one hears in Swift Hall. Students in all three of our degree programs, in all ten areas of study and stages of their programs are engaged in the tasks of reading, thinking, posing questions, following leads, arguing points, and trying to shift perspectives on familiar and less familiar material. And they are all somehow trying to get a handle on what religion is and why it matters that we understand it in continually better ways.
