Bellarmine House, Cohasset, MA
Study by the Sea Retreat
Co-sponsored by Campus Ministry
The Study by the Sea Retreat (SBTS) for graduate students is a free, overnight retreat experience held annually during spring break at the Bellarmine House in the beautiful seaside town of Cohasset, Massachusetts. Study by the Sea provides a unique opportunity to remove oneself from the distractions of campus to study, write, reflect, and recharge.
The Retreat is focused on graduate student well-being and engages retreatants in the core Ignatian concept of Cura Personalis as it relates to the graduate school experience. Registration opens in the spring semester and is available to all graduate students. Space is limited.
