Profs Asked i|b Bring RILW ijrito Classroom -WrThe. suggestion that professors be - asked to devote one class period, during Religion-in-Life JiWfiek, Feb. 15 to 22, to'religious .discussion has- been approved by the. RILW general committee. / "" The committee feels that through . increased emphasis on classroom discussion, a more intimate and practical contact' can be made with the RILW theme “The Stu dent in-the University, the Church, and the World Struggle,” Edgar. Fehnel, RILW publicity chairman, said. vUpon a professor’s approval of such a discussion period, students may decide if they want a re ligious discussion in place of reg ular class. -The committee has expressed ;,the;. :desire that ■ the instructors lead the. discussions themselves and try to' tie religion in. with the course they, are teaching. In this way, students will not feel as. imposed upon as in previous years when guest speakers en tered the classrooms, Fehnel said. . Should 'a guest speaker be de sired, instructors or students can contract one by calling the Penn State Christian Association, 304 Old Main, and stating what topic they want discussed.
