The Chaplain of the College coordinates religious programs on the campus and supervises the Community Outreach Program, a clearing house for volunteer activities in the community. All of the religious organizations sponsor their own services, but many programs are run jointly or are sponsored by the Chaplain s Office for the entire campus. A biweekly newsletter, Threshing Floor, reports on these activities and the programs of the religious organizations. The Chaplains are available to all students for counseling on personal problems, religious concerns, vocational or marital plans, or any of a wide range of concerns.
All counseling is strictly confidential.
