Seeking Worship <strong>and</strong> <strong>Community</strong> Opportunities<br />
The Interfaith Campus Coalition is a body of religious professionals <strong>and</strong> student leaders who are part<br />
of the University of Minnesota community. They strive to integrate religious experience with campus life<br />
while fostering dialogue, underst<strong>and</strong>ing <strong>and</strong> respect among people of different faith communities.<br />
For a list of Interfaith Campus Coalition places of worship visit: www.iccumn.org<br />
For a list of faith-based student groups visit: www.sua.umn.edu<br />
When discussing beliefs with others remember to:<br />
Listen for instant answers. Your serious questions deserve in-depth responses <strong>and</strong> long-term solutions.<br />
Be aware of groups that pressure you to behave differently. No one knows what is right for you but you.<br />
Look out for invitations to gatherings with vague goals. It could be a sign that something is being<br />
hidden from you.<br />
Be curious. When you ask people questions about themselves <strong>and</strong> their beliefs, you encourage<br />
a genuine exchange of ideas <strong>and</strong> sharing that leads to greater underst<strong>and</strong>ing between people.<br />
Want to talk with someone<br />
During your time at the University it’s possible you may need some help dealing with problems<br />
related to stress, anger, depression, anxiety, poor grades, academic difficulties, or other issues.<br />
This is not uncommon. University Counseling & Consulting Services offers a number of services<br />
to assist students with mental health, academic <strong>and</strong> career choice challenges.<br />
