From 1932 to 1977 the School of Religion was independent from the University but in close association with it. Presently, the School of Religion continues as a part of the College of Arts, Humanities, and Social Sciences.
A minor in religious studies is available. The minor consists of 20 credits of which 12 credits may be at the 100-200 level and 8 credits must be at the 300-400 level. For advice on the distribution of the remainder of the electives consult with the director of the School of Religion.
