An interfaith class at Penn, called “Interfaith Dialogue in Action” (or, informally, iBelieve), brings students from different religious backgrounds together for discussions on faith, politics, gender, and other important topics, and to work on community service projects. The course stems from an interfaith trip in 2006 by Hillel and the school’s Muslim Students Association to provide disaster relief to victims of Hurricane Katrina. Today, the vision of the course is to allow students to learn from one another and build a sense of family and community.
