CHANGES MADE IN
CHAPEL SCHEDULE
On October 16th the Chapel
Committee met and proposed'the
following resolution eoncerning
worship service at St. Mary’s:
Monday at 10:30 chapel will be
held for seniors and sophomores;
Wednesday at 6:30 Evening Song
will be held for all students (Day
students are invited); Friday at
10:30 chapel will be held for
juniors and freshmen; and Sim-
days, students may attend either
Holy Communion or the 11:00
Church Service.
In adopting this resolution, the
Chapel Committee has kept a num-
er of purposes in mind: (1) to
preserve the beauty of an eve
ning worship service, (2) to cre
ate an atmosphere of spiritual uni
fication through worship in the
middle of the week, (3) to give
students of different denomina
tions an opportunity to attend
other Raleigh churches after they
have participated in either the
8:00 or the 11:00 service on cam
pus. This resolution went into ef
fect October 27th on a trial basis
of one semester.
Several students at St. Mary’s
were asked their reactions to the
change in the chapel policy. Mary
Strange said, “It is a step forward
to a better attitude towards chapel
because it is too much to require
someone to go to chapel twice on
Sunday.” Laura Beckman com
mented, “It gives me an extra
hour to study on Sundays.” Linda
Glass added, “I will miss the Sun
day night program. I do not think
Sunday night chapel should be
mandatory because it is incon
venient for people taking week
ends. I also do not think the Wed
nesday night program will have
the same atmosphere as the Sun
day evening service.” Sally Dil
lard said, “I can see why some
people would like it, but I enjoyed
ending my Sundays with the eve
ning chapel program.”
