Requirements

Guided by Georgetown's Catholic and Jesuit tradition, with its abiding commitment to interreligious collaboration, Campus Ministry equips students to lead lives of deeper meaning, belonging, and purpose.

In the spirit of the Jesuit tradition of cura personalis (Latin phrase that translates as "care for the entire person"), the Director supports and guides the work of residential chaplains in providing hospitality, pastoral support and opportunities for reflection for students of all religious and spiritual identities. Residential Ministry is a critical part of the university Safety Net case management system, and the Director works to ensure strong communication and coordination with colleagues in Campus Ministry, Residential Living and other key offices within Student Affairs. The Director manages the administrative and operational needs for Residential Ministry.
