i , Graceland is sponsored by the Re organized Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints. Officially, our col lege is non-sectarian. The relation ship between the college and the church is an intricate one involving both freedom and dependence. Each has its own function and each makes its separate contribution to each other, according to the Graceland Bulletin. The fact remains, however, of the persuasive influence of the RLDS reli- gion in the lives of Graceland stu- dents. The importance of this religion can be seen in the extensive reli gious life program here. Other evi dence is the service willingly pro vided by student and faculty priesthood members, by chaplains of the various houses, and by individ ual students who dedicate their tal- ents, skllls, and time to the Lord. Final ly, the general prohibition against on campus smoking and drinking mirror the church's, and our own, attitudes toward these acts. In these ways, and in many others, our religion is part of Graceland. - D. G. 1. The scripture Uames 1:52 that Joseph Smlth read which prompted him to go to the woods and pray. 2. The church seal. 3.
