upon playing bridge instead of trip

Petition
We, the undei signed members oi tho Student Council ot tho
1 onnt.ylvanu State College, do hereby petition the Board of Tt u.s
tccs lor the abolishment of the element of compulsion in the daily
chapel sen tecs. We have leached this decision following a two
u ccks discussion of the question thi outrh the columns of the Penn
State COLLEGIAN and a two-day lcfcicndtini which jyav r c evi
dence that the undergraduates favor abolition to the extent of
IGGO votes m the affnmative and 305 votes m the negative
As repiesentatives of the student body, and in iccognilion of
the opinion ot the undergraduate leaders on the campus, v\e be
lieve the following situation to be the cause of the vote expiesscd
The element ol compulsion associated with religion is offen
sive to the avciage thinking college student It was evident m
the discussion that most undcigiaduatcs behoved that lcligion
and compulsion should be senaiated. While He recognize that
compulsion is moie oi less necessary foi the purpose of or
ganization in regard to courses of study, student conduct and the
like, nevertheless we feel that it is highly undesirable for that
element to mtciteie with an individual’s religious ethics.
Moran ei, it is an accepted fact by most of those intimate
with the conditions oi daily chapel—students and faculty mem
beis m the present and past—that compulsory daily chapel at
Penn State is not fulfilling its onginal purpose Designed to
create a religious atmosphere on the campus, it has tended to
destroy, by attempting thiough an inadequate, meffecient service
to which attendance is giudgingly given, a sincere religious feel
ing, and has created an antipathy to religious services. Wc wish
to emphasize that this petition does not come through any lack of
religious feeling on the campus, but on the contrary through a
desire foi recognition of tiue lehgiou.s and educational principles.
It is our most earnest wish that the Board of Trustees pur
sue the policy for w hich a desire is herein so clearly cxpi essed.
