Religious Life K
The University, because it is distinctly interested in the religious life of  
students, encourages them to participate regularly in the worship of the church It
of their choice and to afliliate themselves with such student religious groups as il
may be provided. On the campus the Young Men’s Christian Association and _°
the Young VVomen’s Christian Association are active student-led organizations, li
each with a full-time director. The Y.M.C.A. has a half-time assistant working E
with freshmen in the dormitories. Frequently great spiritual leaders are brought
to the University to speak. {
Through the existence of student groups representing most major branches
of lewish and Christian Faiths, spiritual growth may be nourished. The activi— l
ties of these groups are coordinated through the Interfaith Council. Most student t
religious groups fumish trained personnel who are sympathetic counselors and  
who are actively interested in the student’s lives. ;
The Phalanx Fraternity, and the Dutch Lunch Club are other student t
groups meeting regularly under the auspices of the YMCA and YWCA.
