Last Friday students, faculty, community leaders and religious professionals attended a Religion on the Secular University Campus symposium which took place in Driscoll from 9 a.m. to 3:30 p.m. It was sponsored by the Department of Religious Studies at DU.
The convention covered topics ranging from how to teach about religion and how religion should be practiced on a secular university campus to the role of faculty in addressing spiritual concerns voiced by students.
Other questions that were addressed were if colleges and universities are meeting their students' needs in terms of religion and if faculty should express personal religious positions in the classroom.
