Naropa University, Boulder

I earned my undergraduate degree from Naropa University in the late 90's in Religious Studies and Writing and Poetics. Both students and faculty were passionate about the programs offered and this created a lively atmosphere for learning. When the program was over it seemed to have come too quickly, the sign of a good experience. Years later, I feel that Naropa's contemplative bent has enabled me to continually feel enriched by whatever life brings me next. Studying there instilled within me a deep sense that it's not what happens but how you meet what happens that matters most.

Studied here for 2 years to finish my undergraduate degree. Had many life changing experiences. Teachers and staff were phenomenal. Classes always had great content and very enlightening discussions. Naropa is a rare gem in a sea of samsara, grateful to have been able to spend time here.
