EMMETT WAITS Instructor Instructor Instructor Instructor Religious Education Instruction in one of the courses of religious education gives the student a better understanding of religious beliefs and creeds. These courses, taught on a non-sectarian basis, impart a greater knowledge of Christianity, world religions and philosophies, churches, and church group work. Students are able to discuss and analyze their religious beliefs and problems with other students at meetings in Student Centers which are maintained by local Denton churches. The opportunity is offered to students to present weekly devotional services through dormitory vesper groups and through the Sunday morning chapel services held in the Little Chapel-in-the- Woods. By the use of maps, religious education instructors may give the students a clearer idea of the areas in which Biblical history took place. 4 ' SEE Y T ..Ll't f',fl.Uf'f'
