Many Filipino Americans and Filipinos across the globe attend religious schools which are traditionally private educational institutions affiliated with an organized religion. In this episode of Mesearch, Dustin and Krystle reflect on the intersection of religion and education. Many seek out religion and spirituality in schools in order to affirm their core values and to find a sense of belonging. On the other hand, marginalized individuals, such as those from the LGBTQIA+ community, may encounter challenges and prejudice in a conservative religious institution which may normalize heteronormative beliefs. And yet, diverse and marginalized individuals continue to enroll in faith based educational institutions. Therefore, it is important to continue thinking about these questions: What might the factors be which lead individuals to attend a religious school? What is the value of religion in schools? Who finds value in attending religious schools?

Let's unpack this.

This episode features commentary from Dr. Micah Hernando, whose research includes a critical exploration of student support in faith based institutions of higher education.
