Historically Black Colleges and Universities
HBCUs are one of the fundamental pillars of American higher education. Their legacy in serving generations of African-American students and their continued dedication to education and community-building offers a distinctive context for interfaith engagement. This learning community will connect individuals at HBCUs across the country to discuss the role of religious diversity on their campuses.

Christ-Centered Colleges and Universities 
As colleges and universities grounded in Christian roots and mission, these institutions are able to engage a diverse set of students from a committed worldview. This learning community will bring together individuals working at these institutions who are interested in how to effectively do interfaith work from a Christian higher education perspective.

Public Universities
Public colleges and universities are, by their very purpose, institutions committed to serving the civic good. With some of the most diverse student bodies in the world, public universities offer a reflection of the wider religious diversity in the United States and an opportunity to offer models of bridge-building to society. This community will offer individuals at public universities a chance to discuss how to do effective and meaningful interfaith work.

Hispanic-Serving Institutions
Serving significant populations of Hispanic students, this diverse set of institutions serves one of the fastest growing student populations in the country. Whether public or private, HSIs have increasingly been recognized for the vital role they play in holistic student development and community partnerships. This online community will discuss how these evolving institutions address the worldview needs of their campus community.
