Rutledfi The renovation of Rutledge College this fall will affect not only its residents, but also persons who use Rutledge Chapel for Sunday services. 4 4We will be having Sunday services in the Russell House Theater this summer, but we are uncertain about a place for worship in the fall, because we do not know how long it will take for them to renovate the facilitv." said the Rev. James Wilson, president of the Student Christian Fellowship. Wilson said the Booker T. Washington Auditorium may be the group's place of worship next fall, but the group is looking for a more central campus location. use, ACCORDING to Wilson, does not have to provide a place for religious services tor any Christian organization. He added that all other campus Christian organizations are funded by their denominations. "The cost of their funding is paid through their home churches," Wilson said, "whereas, we are just known as a nondenominational church of students. "We got Rutledge Chapel because it has not been used since 1965, and therefore, we've been able to use it as our own, but it is not ours by far. It has been a blessing for us that we have been able to use the chapel without conflicting with anyone else wanting to use it on the first and third Sundays." The Student Christian Fellowship Organization is a group of USC students and faculty members who hold church services on the first and third Sundays of the month, and on the fifth Sunday when there is one.

Wilson said although services may be geared toward the black students, they arc not limited to them. "The black students on campus had a place to worship before, but they were going to community churches such as Mount Olive, and Ridgewood Baptist churches," he said. Wilson said he and other ministers drew up a plan to bring back to campus the black students who were worshipping off campus, thus forming the Student Christian Fellowship. "There are still some black students who worship off campus, but the majority of them worship on campus." "We started out as an attempt to bring the black students together on campus," Wilson said, "but what it has really turned out to be is worship services that are not now geared only to black students, as it was in the first semester it was formed."
