Religi plan l By Robert Reeves Staff Writer USC's religious organizations are cranking up after a relatively inactive summer to provide programs for students from many religious backgrounds. Nineteen groups are officially recognized by the university. The Bahai Club, Campus AHvanno Phi A 1 %-? o <iv? t uiiw, viii nipiia , Christian Science, Real Life Fellowship, Maranatha Student Center, Student Christian Fellowship, InterVarsity Christian Fellowship and the Fellowship of Christian Athletes are recognized through student organization charters. ELEVEN OTHER university-chartered student groups have leaders who are members of the Council of University Chaplains and Religious Counselors. These groups are the Baptist Student Union, Campus Crusade, the Catholic Religious Center, the Hillel Jewish Counsellorship, the Latter-Day Saints Institute, the Episcopal-Lutheran-Methodist Center, the Navigators and' the Presbyterian Student Center. The phanlainc o r?

They also use staff parking and have access to students' religious ? I ? f A |jreiereiice lniormanon. BUT THERE are no financial ties between the university and the groups, according to university Chaplain Lauren Brubaker, ?>n unofficial liaison between tne chaplains' council and the university. "Each of the chaplains or counselors are paid by their cwn individual organizations," Brubaker said.

Campuswide events to be coordinated through the Council of Chaplains this year include a Crop Walk for ~ ?7*..? 1-"V wunu nuii^t'ia run uuy festival, a Thanksgiving observance, various forums on topics of general interest and a Religious Emphasis week. IN ADDITION, the council provides a continuing education program for faculty and will sponsor a Clergy Day on which area clergy will participate in various campus activities. Council of Chaplains Chairman Steve Price said the council is open to any group that has a leader who is willing to cooperate with the other members. "Our : o jjui jaisc is uui iu utr i'i competition with each othor, but instead it is to set an example of showing a respect for other religious views through our joint activities." The Baptist, Catholic and Presbyterian organizations have buildings provided by their national or state organizations, a lounn building is shared by the Episcopal, Lutheran and Methodist groups. THE BAPTIST Student Center, 700 Pickens St., has two full-time chaplains, the Rev. Woody Hammett and Jane Young. "First we are here tc represent South Carolina BaDtists." said Hammett "Secondly we try to provide a growth experience for students, and thirdly we are . 20< k will Hi imin I | JWW v a 1 Beroi II ,|j Theeflortl m \ DeitHdu With the u Get 20c right off th below, when you pi Spree or Bero!

Hammett estimated that the center will work with 600700 students this year through Bible studies, individual and group counseling and social events. Hammett said some programs are geared toward sending students out to take part in summer and Christmas vacation mission projects around the country. The Rev. Steve Lynch of the Catholic Religious Center, 1610 Greene St., said his center reaches several hundred students each week inrougn aauy mass, tsut, ne said, fewer students participate in the center's other activities, such as Bible and Catholic theology groups. "WE HAVE over 2,400 students enrolled here at USC who list their rplicinn as ?Q-w. Catholic, and over the course of the year a large proportion of that group will come through the center for one activity or another," said Lynch. The Presbyterian Student Center, 1702 GreeneSt., is operated bv full-time chaplains C.J. Hammett and Steve Price. Its main programs are Bible studies, sharing groups and Wednesday and Sunday night programs. The center also sponsors several puppet teams that perform throughout the Columbia area and an in1 ternational folk dance exhibition team. [~ i "WK LIKK to stress the fellowship aspect of the i center," said Price.
