This year, Hamilton’s Chaplaincy decided to follow up Feb Fest with yet another week full of events: Spirituality 101 Week. The week-long event invites Hamilton community members to “Join the chaplaincy and on campus organizations in a week to promote religious literacy and have a lot of fun along the way!” The week runs from Sunday, Feb. 19 to Sunday, Feb. 26 and includes events such as a Reiki Workshop, an interfaith roundtable dinner and discussion called “Religion and Anthropology: The Origins and Persistence of Ritual,” Friday Muslim prayers, multiple workshops on how to make challah bread and a “Meaning of Life” workshop. The events are run by students, faculty and staff, as well as faculty from other colleges, and includes events focused on a diverse spectrum of religions. The week is not to convince Hamilton community members to join a specific religion but rather to provide ways in which Hamilton community members can interact with spirituality and learn more about the different faiths with which some of their fellow community members are engaged.
