Religious and Spiritual Life

The Office of Religious, Spiritual, and Ethical Life (ORSEL) connects students with a vibrant community and wise spiritual mentors. We ensure access to religious practices and promote a sense of belonging for students of all backgrounds.

ORSEL helps students to:

• pause to experience the wonder of everything they’re learning
• encounter the wisdom of spiritual traditions in fresh and accessible ways
• build community, compassion, and relationships that cross cultural divides
• reflect on their values and find moral courage

Through your gift to the ORSEL discretionary fund, you give our chaplains the flexibility to show up where they are needed most.

*If you do not see a particular fund listed, you can donate on the MIT giving site and still be counted in the MIT 24-Hour Challenge.
