The Second Symposium on Religion is the second religious forum to take place on the campus of Columbia University this year, sponsored by the Department of Religious Advisers of the University. There will be eight meetings at Earl Hall beginning at 4:15 o’clock March 26, 27 and April 1, 2, 3, 8, 9, 10. Each meeting will be devoted to a presentation by a prominent religious leader, in which he will speak of the attitude of his faith on problems of religion and morals which have been submitted by students throughout the University. A fifteen minute question period will follow each presentation of forty-five minutes.
Several hundreds ofquestions have been sent in by students from all parts of the University. These questions have been classified and have been given to the speakers who will base their addresses upon them. The following attitudes will be presented at these meeting: Catholicism by Rt. Reverend Joseph H. McMahon, Presbyterianism by Rev. Albert Parker Fitch, Quakerism by Professor Jesse Holmes, Humanism by Dr. Charles Francis Potter, Reform Judaism by Dr. William H. Fineshriber and Orthodox Judaism by Dr. Leo Jung.
