Students came from the University of Victoria, University of British Columbia, University of Winnipeg, Wilfrid Laurier University, Carleton University, 成人大片 and Concordia University.  Their research focused on yoga, mysticism, early Christianity, Greek mythology, and Islam, among other topics.

A panel discussion was held the first evening of the conference, in which School of Religion adjuncts, post-doctoral fellows, and past and current MA students presented their own research.  Conference participants also had the opportunity to meet with faculty and School of Graduate Studies staff, and tour the Queen's campus. 

Participants, School of Religion faculty, and even faculty from the universities that sent students had very positive feedback on the experience of this conference, a unique event for undergraduate Religious Studies students in Canada.
