Community Practice Day

Each semester, Naropa University closes its offices and holds no classes for one day called Community Practice Day. On this day, members of the Naropa community— students, faculty, staff and others—are invited to participate in group sitting meditation practice during the morning and other contemplative practices are offered throughout the day. Panel discussions, departmental lunches and community service projects are often offered in the afternoon.

Convocation

At Naropa's traditional ceremony held in the beginning of the fall semester, members of the Naropa community gather to celebrate the start of another academic year.
