The Religious Campus Organizations will host its second annual ice cream social at the University of Colorado at Boulder Aug. 22 from 11 a.m. to 4 p.m. on the lawn of the Sibell Wolle Fine Arts Building.

RCO is composed of 21 member groups involved in campus ministry at the university. Staff and students will be available to answer questions and provide information on the groups.

"Our member groups offer opportunities for service projects, worship, Bible study, retreats and other activities to help develop a student's spiritual life while here at CU-Boulder," said Pastor Laurel Alexander, RCO president. "All of the member groups have signed an ethics code where we commit ourselves to being supportive of the other groups and non-coercive in our dealings with students."

Currently, some of the RCO staff members serve on committees within the division of student affairs. After the Sept. 11 terrorist attacks, RCO partnered with the counseling center and the Wardenburg Health Center to provide counseling staff available to talk with concerned students.
