| The Centre for Catholic-Jewish Learning at King’s University College is an interfaith initiative meant to celebrate and further that renewal. We hope to provide a forum in which academics and other community members can discuss the many intersections between Christianity and Judaism, can learn more about each other, and can explore ways to cooperate in a fruitful and respectful manner. We intend our work to be an authentic expression of the transformation that began at Vatican II and continues today. As Jews and Christians, university members and community leaders, we hope to build an interdisciplinary network of relationships involving shared research, teaching and publication, and to offer resources to those who seek to join in that conversation.

The Centre for Studies in Creativity with its roots in the Department of Psychology has evolved into the interdisciplinary Centre for Creativity. The Centre supports and encourages creative endeavours in all areas of the arts and across diverse disciplines and cultures.Spirituality and religious expressions are at the heart of King’s University College as a Catholic institution, and art through the ages has revealed a deep connection with the spiritual realm of being. In addition, the historical, socio-political and psychological contexts of creativity are considered: issues of creativity such as originality, imagination, and spontaneity; ethics, culture, and value orientation.

The Centre for Social Concern was established in 1982 and is engaged in research and public awareness around a variety of issues of social justice and peace here in Canada and internationally. Consistent with the mission of King’s University College as a Catholic institution of higher learning, the intention of the Centre is to bring issues of poverty, inequality, and other forms of injustice under the scrutiny of social analysis. Prevailing ideologies that help shape social and economic policies are questioned by bringing to bear the latest empirical data and analyses drawn from a variety of alternative publications, as well as the popular press. |
