What do Interfaith LLC members have to say about their experience?

In 2025-26, students from the Interfaith LLC participated in the Intro to Interfaith Leadership Wellness Credit, a variety of interfaith dinners, and visited religious services across multiple traditions. They also planned events cooking for the local community, hosting a game of interfaith jeopardy, and much more. Here's what they said to say about their experience:

  • "I think the most meaningful thing for me was being able to actually attend events of other faiths and interact with the people there, and one thing I will take going forward is how dialogue is really important to understanding not just people of other traditions but other people in general."
  • "It was especially meaningful just to go to peoples' religious events, especially for denominations or faiths that I have friends who actively follow, and feel like I better understand my friends and peers at Dartmouth... I hope to enjoy more events that encourage interfaith learning, dialogue, and leadership in the future. I want to lean into asking and approaching the uncomfortable"
  • "I think spirituality is important to my wellness, and a relationship with the divine is something my family has always encouraged my individual exploration of. Hearing about how faith defines others has been incredibly interesting and constructive, and it even makes me want to dive deeper into my own faith.
