Religion Views
RY NORMA CHUBBICK.
"Only ti'.e University as a
whole can give religion a place
on campus," Rev. Rex Knowles
told a Graduate club forum at
the Union Friday night.
Knowles spoke as a member
of the religious element on the
campus at the forum discussion
on the place of religion in col
lege. Speaking as a member of
the student body was Bill Rou
ter, Y. M. C. A. student presi
dent, and Dr. Clarence C. Mc
Neill, chairman of the depart
ment of economics, gave his
views as a faculty member. Hal
Scheldt, Graduate club member,
led the forum.
"THE UNIVERSITY CAMPUS
exists to show people the most
effective way of living," Rev.
Knowles, Presbyterian Student
House pastor said. "If religion is
left out, part of the truth is left
out."
He referred to a plan now in
use at the University of Michigan
as an example of what the Uni
versity administration could do
to promote religoin on campus.
At Michigan, Rev. Knowles
said, a coordinator of religion
has been elected to the faculty.
A special building known as the
Hall of Religion, houses all of
fices of churches represented on
campus. Courses in each denomi
nation are held by the student
pastors each semester.
"The coordinator has the
power over religion similar to
that of the chancellor over the
entire university," Knowles said
AS PROOF THAT MANY stu
dents on the Nebraska campus
are interested in studv of reli
gion, Knowles referred to the large
attendance at the Bible study;
course which is held on Monday
and Wednesday mornings at 6:30
at the Presbyterian Student
House.
In the opinion of Dr. C. E. Mc
Neill, religion on the campus bene
fits students to the extent that
students think about brotherhood
and the inter-relatjonship of all
students.
"As a whole, the groups and
houses on campus provide a
wholesome friendly atmosphere
for students," Dr. McNeill com
mented, "but these groups could
go further. in social improvement
by extending brotherhood be-
