Board of Administration Tells of Plans in Letter to.
Kansan
"In addition to this work which Dr. Schweeger is to do in consultation with the Sunday School and church authorities, he was authorized to investigate the advisability of a short course or institute for Bible teachers corresponding to the week for merchants, editors, etc. We have found quite an active demand from teachers for suggestions and instructions, and we believe this short course supplemented by proper correspondence courses through the extension division
That the University of Kansas may in time give credit for Bible study is the hope of the Board of Administration, expressed in a letter to the editor of the Kansan reprint reference to Sunday School work in the University.
Plans have been made and partly executed looking toward the establishment of such courses as would best bring direct religious study into the University. What the plan are being are being are shown in the report better from President E. T. Hackney to the editor of the Daily Kansan:
"Your request for information as to the plans of the Board of Administration in reference to Sunday School work to hand and in reply will say the Boy's Teens movement and the State Sunday School Association are actively urging the giving of credit for work effectively done in Sunday and church schools in the public schools. When that work is done under competent teachers and with a definite course of study, they are consultation with the Board of Administration requested Dr. R. A. Education, to prepare a course or syllabus of Bible study that might be used in classes where this credit is desired.
would fill a long felt want and effectuall serve many Bible teachers.
"Colorado and Dakota have worked out Bible syllabi and are giving credit for work done under proper instruction and with proper courses of study. We provide a support of every denomination and creed. The Board hopes that the University, through this syllabus and through a Bible teachers' week and correspondence with the State Department, be able to do even more effective work for the people of the State of Kansas."

PLAN BIG RELIGION MEETING ON OREAD
Gatherings
Y. M. and Y. W. Will Holo Series of Religious Gatherings
With Raymond Robins, the great social reformer, of Chicago, or Robert E. Speer, the noted author of religious works, and Ted Mercer, nephew of President Arthur, now engaged Christian work with the New York University leaders of the meetings for men, and Miss Louise Holmquist, one of the greatest of the Y. W. C. A. secretaries, as the leader of the meetings for the women, the Student Religious Movement meeting at the University of Virginia, gave to the woman of the University the greatest religious meetings that have ever been held here.
It is not yet certain that Raymond Robins will be able to be here, but in case he does not, Robert E. Sperer, a distinguished leader in Christian work, will come in his stead. He will Riggs the director of U. N. field secretes for the Y. W. A. in this field will help manage the meetings of the W. S. G. A. The advertising of the campaign will be in charge of Lloyd Douglas, of the University of Illinois.
**Regulatory**
Both of the religious organizations are well prepared for the meetings, which will probably be held in the latter part of October or the first part of November. The Y. M. C. A. has had a committee of sixity, under the leadership of Rev. N. S. Elderkin, meeting weekly during the entire year. The Y. W. C. A. has had a committee of five doing the same kind of work. This writer has been working under Miss Kate Riggs, a sister of the field secretary.
The men will probably meet in Fraser and the women in Myers Hall or the women in Fraser and the men in the gymnasium. The women will depend on the crowds which attend. There will be one meeting open to both men and women.
Negotiations are under way to secure the Wichita Gospel Team for a curtain raid for the campaign. The team must ensure that they will be able to get the team here.
The workers believe that the recent campaign of Sherwon Eddy, at Pemphis University, has decisive for Christian life, has some significance in denoting the trend of the religious work, and all the Christian Association works. We are and work of this campaign.
Mott Can't Come.
John R. Mott, the originator of the student volunteer campaign, has gone to Africa and will not be here for the meetings. This circumstance seemed at first a setback to the coming meetings, but the men and women from the other obstacle, have set to work with a greater determination to make the meetings a success.
Conrad Hoffman, head of the Y. M. C. A. work here, was chairman of the student committee at the University of Wisconsin two years ago when there were 300 students pledged to a christian life in a similar meeting.
A World Movement
The World's Student Volunteer Movement is a powerful religious activity. Its slogan is: "The Evangelization of the World in This Generation." Some of the things that have been taken up actively by the organization are: the planning and extending of active work of University students; the devising of national and international agendas this work; the effort to become one to Jesus Christ; to deepen the spiritual life of the students of the universities, and to enlist students in the work of extending the Kingdom of Christ throughout the entire world.
The World's Student Volunteer Movement is not at all a new thing in the religious world. It has been a real factor in religious work for some years. In 2015, the University of Kansas next fall promises to be a continuation of this work.
