The Spiritual and Religious Life staff continues to be of service through direct conversations and via an array of platforms. Distinctive activities and outreach through our website and Facebook are designed to help students and staff adapt as fluidly as possible to the changing landscape. It’s all uniquely Lawrence, so our staff and students don’t miss a step.

The Dean and Chaplain to the University as well as the Associate Dean are keeping open hours for the students, staff and faculty, and can be reached to schedule time via our page on the Lawrence website.

Our office continues to collaborate
with other campus partners to develop ways
Lawrentians can stay connected to each other.
As we navigate this temporary situation the limitations to be together and stay connected may make things cumbersome,
but those connections are worth the effort.

All are welcome to join in the celebration of life honoring Lifongo Vetinde, Professor of French.

Come play, dance, and make music at the Open Jam.
This is a participatory event – join in!

Sunday at Noon.
Located at Lawrence University in Esch Hurvis, level 2 of Warch Campus Center.

Everyone is a dancer, and everyone is a musician. This improvisational movement and music jam is a space to try things out, to practice creating, to practice playing, to just be in space together.

Everyone is welcome. (all ages, all communities [LU or not], all abilities, all identities.) You decide how you participate in a jam space. You may make sound/music, you may dance, you may bring an instrument, you may rest, you may watch…

To start, there will be a brief, physical warm up to the space and each other facilitated by LU dance professor – Margaret Paek. You can come and go as you please during the jam, though you are encouraged and welcome to join the opening and closing circles to process together.

“We the People” truly means:
