Dominican University Parent Guide
Celebrating Faith
University Ministry
Rooted in the four pillars of Dominican life: prayer, study, service and community, University Ministry provides opportunities to grow more deeply in relationship with God, learn more about the Catholic faith and other faith traditions, live the Gospel values of service and justice and participate in a welcoming university community inspired by the Sinsinawa Dominican charism.
All students are invited to enrich their Dominican experience by participating in University Ministry programs, liturgies, retreats, leadership, interfaith dialogue, social justice and service opportunities, and ongoing conversation about faith in our lives and in the world.
Mass Schedule
Rosary Chapel is at the heart of the main campus in Mazzuchelli Hall. We encourage students and their families to join in opportunities for communal prayer and individual reflection.

Siena Center
Dominican University established the Siena Center to engage critical issues of church and society in light of faith and scholarship for the benefit of the university community and the wider Chicago-land community. The Siena Center carries out its work through a variety of lectures, workshops, symposia, and research. We offer a rich array of events, each addressing a crucial dimension of life from the perspective of faith. We have taken advantage of the structure of the university’s academic year to develop the Siena Center’s offerings—exploring new and different themes in both the fall and spring semesters. Parents and students are welcomed and encouraged to join us!
More information about the events of the Siena Center can be found at our web site, or by calling us at (708) 714-9105.
