Outside the Classroom Learning

Involvement in student organizations can provide positive social interaction, community service opportunities, and valuable real-world experience.

Religious Studies Student Association (RSSA)

RSSA is a UNO student organization sponsored by the Religious Studies Department to encourage and foster the academic interest in studying religion.

We provide a forum for students to discuss religion, spirituality, current event and trends in the academic study of religion. We promote the awareness of various topics dealing with religion and spirituality. RSSA is open to all UNO student, faculty and community members interested in discussing religion. RSSA will connect you with other like-minded individuals, keep you up-dated on current trends in the study of religion and inform you of possibly opportunities to learn more about religion.

Learn more about RSSA.


Explore Ravel/Unravel

Religious Studies students at UNO created a campaign with Ravel/ Unravel, a portrait of religious diversity at the University of Nebraska Omaha.

Ravel/ Unravel is a multimedia exploration of the tapestry of spiritual and religious identities that make up our communities hosted by Project Interfaith. The project hopes to ignite a movement for people to openly and respectfully learn, talk and share about topics which are typically taboo but often define our interactions and experiences as humans: identity, religion, spirituality and culture.

Please explore their website, watch video interviews and upload your own, comment on and share your favorite videos via social media, and use discussion guides and educational resources.

Getting Involved Matters!

1. It allows you to become connected to UNO. Our campus is full of resources, but the responsibility is on the student to seek them out. Being involved helps you to do that.

2. It helps build community. Since you're leaving your family and sometimes your friends behind, getting involved helps your discover new friends with similar interests.

3. It allows you to discover your passions and strengths. These will follow you all through life. It allows you to discover what you don't like, too.

4. It's a résumé builder: freshman year is not too soon to begin thinking about positioning yourself for future employment.

5. Sometimes, busier students do better in all areas. This will vary a lot by the student, of course, but more free time does not always equal better grades. Being involved will require some organization and time management on your part—and that's a good thing.
