<p>Oh my goodness, no! I was worried about that too with private schools. It does show up at certain points – there is a Christmas celebration where they may read a bible story, convocation has a prayer, and there is a philosophy/religion general education requirement (which can be fulfilled by any two philosophy or religion courses from Primal Religions to World Religions and anywhere in between), but religion doesn’t impact the daily life of students unless you join religious organizations, and the aforementioned events are not even mandatory. I would say it is about as prevalent as it is at Chapman, if that. </p>
