Lambda Theta Alpha Latin Sorority, Inc. and Pi Delta Psi Fraternity, Inc. are partnering to host a Thanksgiving Food Drive in support of the Covenant Soup Kitchen. Over the course of two weeks, we will collect non-perishable food donations from students, faculty, and community members to help provide meals for families in need during the holiday season. Donation boxes will be placed throughout campus, including at cultural centers, Rowe, Wilbur Cross, and other central locations. This initiative aims to foster community engagement, promote service, and highlight the importance of giving back. By working together, we hope to make a meaningful impact and ensure that more families can enjoy a warm meal this Thanksgiving!

This course consists of eight online modules that the student can complete independently. An instructor will meet virtually with the students weekly to review each module topic and answer questions. Expect to spend study time reviewing each module topic outside of the review class. A student who completes all the modules, works through the quizzes, and studies the resource materials independently should be able to pass both the written and oral state exam successfully.

"The Three Amigos," Monsignor Joseph Donnelly, Imam Gazmend Aga, and Rabbi Eric Polokoff, will present "It's About Relationships," at the Osher Lifelong Learning Institute's (OLLI) end-of-semester celebration on November 11, 2025 at 10:00 a.m., on the UConn Waterbury Campus at 99 East Main Street in downtown Waterbury. This special event is free to OLLI members and $25 for non-members. All are welcome. A pizza lunch will be served at 11:45 a.m. Back by popular demand, The Three Amigos have been hugely popular guests at many venues in the past several years, discussing faith and community from the point of view of Judaism, Catholicism, and Islam. Their spirited collaboration began when Trinity Health of New England acquired a heritage version of the St. John's Bible and sent one volume to St. Mary's Hospital in Waterbury. That volume was the Pentateuch, the first five books of the Bible, and the foundational text for all three monotheistic religions – Judaism, Christianity and Islam. Rabbi Polokoff, Imam Aga, and Monsignor Donnelly were invited to a ceremony at the hospital to welcome the text. The conversation among the three was so energetic and enlightening that the trio believed they should expand their conversation, open it to the public, and take it on the road.
