STANFORD ASSOCIATED RELIGIONS

The Office for Religious Life oversees and provides support for Stanford Associated Religions (SAR), nearly thirty religious organizations invited to offer their spiritual services to the campus. All SAR organizations, individual members and advisors pledge (a) to promote the moral and spiritual growth of the Stanford University community; (b) to support the University's steady exercise of free inquiry and its pursuit of the highest standards of intellectual and moral excellence; (c) to represent that group and its purposes forthrightly, while at the same time treating with respect the religious traditions and activities of others; and (d) to safeguard the religious freedom, human dignity, conscience and personal spiritual welfare of all members of the university. In addition to the groups that comprise SAR, roughly a dozen student religious organizations affiliate only through the Office of Student Activities.
