Eligibility
Collegium thrives with participants from all religious denominations (or no spiritual leanings). The focus is on the multiple traditions that comprise “the Catholic imagination.” Catholic institutions thrive when they are able to share with and learn from people of all faiths and spiritual backgrounds.
Unless specifically arranged with the Collegium Director, colloquy participants are from member schools. The colloquy is designed primarily for faculty members, but administrators and staff members who share significant responsibility for students or faculty formation are welcome to participate as well. Participants should be able to commit to being present for the full colloquy week.
Registration Process
Member campuses have different methods for selecting participants. Some campus liaisons nominate people, others invite any interested faculty to signify their interest to the liaison. Campus liaisons then send participant name(s) to the Collegium administrative assistant, typically by December 15. Collegium colloquy participants should complete the online registration no later than March 15. Full registrations include:
- the completed on-line registration form [will receive password to access registration form with welcome letter]
- a curriculum vitae
- an informal personal essay, up to 500 words, in which you discuss your reasons for attending Collegium. Include significant hopes and/or questions about the relationship between your academic career and spiritual life. The primary purpose of the essay is to give us a sense of what issues are most important to participants.
