The Canterbury Society - We are a new group of open minded Episcopalians who like to meet with other open minded people to talk about God and life. We will meet on Tuesday evenings after Senate at 8ish for a fabulous potluck dinner, in the Gordh room at the Chapel, followed by a laid-back discussion. Our goal is to have fellowship, explore ways we can make a difference in our community and work towards implementing the Millennium Development Goals and the ONE campaign to end extreme poverty. We're Episcopalian...so that means plenty of food, laughter, singing, talking, friendship, and of course, God! All are welcome to help us form and direct the evolution of this group and its mission. Come join us!

THUGS. The Hollins United Gospel Singers is a student-led gospel choir who perform a wide variety of a capella gospel music. Though they have a songbook full of songs, we welcome new songs from members. THUGS is primarily a place to have fun by way of beautiful, inspirational music. We welcome any skill level, level of commitment, student or voice. We rehearse every Sunday at 6:30pm in Presser 209. We organize all performances, rehearsals and song selection ourselves and try to involve everyone and the campus community in worshipping through music. Contact the Chaplain's Office at 362-6257 for more information.

Your group? One of the unique assets of Hollins is the easy ability to create a group based on your own set of interests or needs. We are hopeful and open to your ideas in response to needs you observe in yourself or on campus.
