Todd Ochoa is an anthropologist who focuses on religion. This semester the former New Faculty Program director is teaching Introduction to Religion and Culture to 180 students as well as a graduate course, Religion in Postcolonial Americas. Ochoa explains that religious studies is not the same as theology. Rather than focusing on particular faiths and texts, religious studies examines the people and cultures, the human relationships and dynamics.
