Harvard Wants Religion To Return To Curriculum

Harvard Wants Religion To Return To Curriculum
study religion, along with ethics and U.S. history.

That's the recommendation from a faculty committee.

Its report said, "Harvard is no longer an institution with a religious mission, but religion is a fact that Harvard's graduates will confront in their lives." The committee notes that 94 percent of incoming students report discussing religion and 71 percent attend services.

The report said Harvard should require students to take a course in "reason and faith," which could include classes on topics such as religion and democracy, Charles Darwin or a current course called "Why Americans Love God and Europeans Don't."
