Other Cultural Opportunities. The University provides many
other cultural opportunities in addition to the regular convocations
Re. and musicales. Some of the colleges hold assemblies regularly at
ner- which matters of college interest are discussed. The various de-
partments bring special lecturers to the University. The Art
Department presents not only to its students, but also to the whole
University, exhibits of great paintings, of etchings, and of draw-
I ings. The Music Department sponsors a philharmonic orchestra,
'lge a University band, a men’s glee club and a women’s glee club, all
D1' of which give concerts and furnish music for convocations. The
Y.M.C.A. sponsors a series of forums and informal discussions in
the Student Union, the men’s dormitories, and in the various fra-
ternities. The Cosmopolitan Club, composed of students born in
[ni_ foreign countries and some from the United States, studies through
the various departments and activities of the University the social,
political, and cultural life of foreign countries. Departmental
clubs add effectively to the cultural life of the University.

rec- Religious Life
The University, because it is distinctly interested in the reli-
gious life of students, encourages them to maintain their member-
ships in the churches of their choice and to attend religious worship
regularly. On the campus the Young Men’s Christian Association
and the Young Women’s Christian Association are active organiza-
tions, each with a full-time secretary. Frequently great spiritual
leaders are brought to the University to speak to the students.
