Progressive Curriculum
Six of the seven billion people worldwide declare themselves people of faith, and that number is growing. 宗教 is a fundamental dimension of human experience. 在博彩网址大全, students examine world religions from many angles and receive the conceptual skills necessary to interpret religious experience in its many manifestations.

Being a religion major at Carthage has taught me how to lead an educated, compassionate, and informed life and to open myself up to understanding such a crucial part of the human experience.”
