About us

The University of Saskatchewan has a longstanding history of collaboration with faith representatives who have contributed to a campus culture of respect, inclusion, and pluralism.

The growing diversity of religious and spiritual backgrounds and beliefs of the University community presents an opportunity to build robust connections with communities of faith, interfaith understanding, and co-operation. Faith Leaders are advocates for such conversations, provide spiritual guidance, support to the University community, advice regarding religious issues, and educational and cultural events.

Some Faith Leaders provide one-on-one spiritual counsel and all represent links to their wider faith communities.

Contact information

If you need someone to talk to, consider speaking with a faith leader. Faith leaders offer support and can connect you with the faith organization they are affiliated with.

Prayer Room Rules and Responsibilities

All prayer rooms are shared and rely largely on the respect of users. The opportunity for space, quiet, retreat, and refuge may help many in managing life, health, and wellbeing. During a traumatic event, such as bereavement, these spaces can be useful places of calm recollection. Users for whom religion may be of no obvious significance are equally welcome.

Multi-faith and prayer rooms are open to Usask individuals. They are intended for drop‑in use during opening hours, unless otherwise stated. The rooms are not available for events.

Please observe the following guidelines:

  • Respect the guidelines posted in the individual rooms.
  • Leave the room tidy for the next user.
  • Take personal items of religious practice with you.
  • Do not block others from using the room for long periods.
  • Keep noise to a minimum. No general conversations.
  • No eating or drinking in the rooms.
  • No mobile phone calls or use of other devices.
  • No candles, incense, or open flames of any kind.
  • No distribution of flyers or posters.
  • No holding meetings.
  • No sleeping.
  • Ablution facilities are for individual student-use only. Any excessive water on the floor and/or seats should be dried off after use.
