Colloquium Series
Throughout the year, the Department of Religious Studies organizes 2-4 colloquium meetings each quarter for departmental faculty and graduate students. The colloquia provide an opportunity for the Stanford Religious Studies community to learn about and engage with current research conducted by our faculty, post-docs, and graduate students. Occasionally we also feature the work of scholars beyond Stanford, who join us in person or via zoom. Barbara Pitkin (Senior Lecturer in Religious Studies) coordinates the colloquium series for the department.
